the only requirement is that you must be blind or visually
impaired.  If you are not in the phone book and would like to be
included, simply email me at

like to be placed on the monthly electronic mailing list to either
receive notification of changes to the PB or to automatically
receive the phone book as an attached file to the notification
message, simply let me know that as well.  Here is the information
I need.  1, your first and last names.  2, if you are an amateur
radio operator, your call sign.  3, your city and state and or
country.  Please make your return information look exactly like
the following example to make it easier for me to add you to the
list.  Please write it all on a single line and keep everything in
lower case letters except for the capitals of your first and last

trouble, simply email me and I will send you a copy of the phone
book right away.  If you know of other blind internet users not in

Item #21  NYNEX Interactive Yellow Pages(TM) on the Internet's World Wide Web
http://www.vtcom.fr/nynex is now accessible to computer users with
vision impairments, offering convenient access to business listings and
Web sites in the northeast United States.

The new capability enables a visually impaired person, using a screen
reader, to access the names, addresses, and phone numbers of nearly
every business in New York and New England, from NYNEX's 2.1 million
business listings in its 280 Yellow Pages directories. Additionally, the
service enables Internet users to link with the Web sites of more than
400 of those businesses with sound and advanced searching capabilities.

`NYNEX has taken the lead in recognizing that people with vision
impairments, who use computers, are part of their market base,` said
Deborah Kaplan, vice president of the World Institute on Disability, and
member of President Clinton's National Information Infrastructure
Advisory Council. `NYNEX Interactive Yellow Pages greatly increases the
amount of directory information available to people with vision
impairments.`

Service users with vision impairments will find NYNEX Interactive Yellow
Pages on the Web well organized and easy to navigate. Designed for use
with a screen reader, NYNEX Interactive Yellow Pages' `text-only' option
replaces graphics and icons on the service's Web home page.

The service is organized by familiar A-Z shopping headings much like
traditional Yellow Pages directories. It also features a `Top 25
Headings Search` so that users can easily access the most popular
headings, and a `Hot Sites` list of new and exciting Web sites listed on
the service.

The NYNEX Communications Center for People with
Disabilities offers information, equipment, and services to customers
who are visually, verbally, or hearing impaired. They include
teletypewriter devices for the deaf, braille or large print bills for
visually impaired customers, and `Dial Operator Privileges` for those
who have difficulty dialing telephone numbers.

Businesses and consumers can learn more about NYNEX Interactive Yellow Pages
 and its capability for access by the visually impaired either by accessing
NYNEX's
Web site at http://www.vtcom.fr/nynex, or by calling 1-800-356-9639.

                      ACCESSING THE UT O&M PAGES
To access the Web, you need a browser.  A browser is an application
that reads documents, and can fetch documents from other sources.
Two common graphical browsers are Netscape and Mosaic.  Both are free
and available for Macs and IBM PCs running Windows.  AOL and Prodigy
also provide Web browsers as part of their service.
The most common text-only browser is Lynx.  It is also free and
usually available through the same computer system on which you
receive your email.  Lynx can usually be accessed by typing lynx
(without the quotation marks) after you log on to your computer
system.
TENET USERS ONLY:  To access Lynx from the main menu, select
option 3 (Internet Resources) followed by option 12 (Tenet WWW).
To access the UT O&M home page, first start up your browser.  Next you
need to open theURL of the home page.  In Mosaic, this can be done
by selecting Open URL from the File menu.  In Netscape, select
ROpen LocationS from the RFileS menu.  Other graphical browsers work
similarly.  In Lynx, simply type g (without the quotes).  When the
browser prompts you for the URL type:
              http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/~jshouman/OandM/
Please note that it must be typed exactly  the way it is shown above.
When you have reached the UT O&M home page, you can follow the links
to the sources of information listed in this brochure.  If you are
using a graphical browser, click on the underlined text once; if you
are using Lynx, use TAB or the arrow keys to highlight the link and
RETURN or ENTER to select it.
We invite you to explore these pages and also provide any comments or
suggestions that you might have.  Should you have any questions about
accessing these pages or publishing on the Web, please feel free to call
or email us.

Item #34  The Raleigh (North Carolina) News and Observer - NANDO
See the following post from Patrick Crispen's TOURBUS list
          concerning the Raleigh (North Carolina) News and Observer:

          TOURBUS -- AUGUST 22, 1995
          TODAY'S SITE: NANDO
          TODAY'S ADDRESSES: http://www2.nando.net/nt/nando.cgi
          http://www2.nando.net/subscribe/login.html

          A lot of the journalists who read TOURBUS might not
          appreciate
          my saying this, but thanks to the Internet in general, and
          to NandO in specific, I haven't had a need to buy or read a
          real newspaper in about a year.

          The Raleigh (North Carolina) News and Observer is one of the
          most respected newspapers in the South.  Their staff has won
          numerous Pulitzer prizes, and the News and Observer's
          stories are often picked up by the major wire services.

          A little while back, the News and Observer decided to set up
          shop on the Internet.  In particular, the News and Observer
          wanted to create an on-line news service on the World Wide
          Web called NandO (get it? News and Observer ... N and O
          ... NandO).

          Let's just say that they succeeded beyond anyone's wildest
          imagination. In my humble opinion, NandO is the absolute
          best spot on the Net
          for the latest news and information because:

          1. NandO is not abridged ... it is a *complete* on-line
          newspaper,

          2. NandO not only carries stories from the News and Observer
          staff, but it also carries stories from the Associated Press
          wire, and

          3. Nando is *FREE*

          NandO's address is:

          http://www2.nando.net/nt/nando.cgi

          You would be a complete fool (or an NCAA official) if you
          did not add this URL to your hot list :)

          Before you get too involved in NandO, however, you'll
          probably want to set up an account and password with NandO
          by visiting

          http://www2.nando.net/subscribe/login.html

          (you will need a forms-capable web browser to do this).
          The account is absolutely fee, and it will allow you to read
          *all* of the articles contained in NandO (some of the wire
          service providers are concerned about copyright, so they
          require NandO
          to have some sort of authentication routine for the wire
          service's articles).

          Anyway, back to the NandO homepage
          (http://www2.nando.net/nt/nando.cgi). NandO lists four main
          sections across the top of its page:
          World, Nation, Sports, and Politics.  If you scroll down a
          little, you'll see that NandO also has six other sections as
          well: Business, Info Tech (information technology),
          Entertainment, Voices, Something Else, and the Sports
          Server.

          Let's click on the World icon at the top of the page and
          see what happens.

          Each NandO section is set up in pretty much the same way. To
          the right of the NandO section logo are a couple of
          pictures.  These pictures are from the AP wire, and you can
          view them (and read the accompanying AP article) by clicking
          on the picture (provided you have set up a NandO account
          (see above)).

          Right below the NandO section logo is a bar that has links
          to all of the other sections in NandO.  Below that is the
          Top Story (including the first couple sentences from that
          story), followed by the News Summary (which are one sentence
          summaries of the day's major news stories).

          Below the News Summary are the Headlines.  Usually, the
          Headlines section just includes links to the complete
          articles mentioned in the News Summary section, but this is
          not always the case (I usually just risk it and skip past
          the News Summary section altogether and read the Headlines
          section instead).

          At the bottom are the Briefs.  CHECK THESE OUT.  Usually,
          the briefs section contains 10 or 15 stories that you can
          not find anywhere else.  Below the Briefs is another bar
          that will link you to the other parts of NandO.

          Each major section of NandO (World, National, Sports,
          Politics, Business and Info Tech) has the same set up: Top
          Story, News Summary, Headlines, and Briefs.

          Entertainment and Voices are set up a little differently.
          Also, two sections of NandO -- Something Else and the Sports
          Server -- can only be reached from the NandO homepage.  The
          Something
          Else section is devoted to news stories that just don't fit
          anywhere Else (e.g. a story about how the attorneys in the
          OJ trial debated the use of the Yiddish word for crazy
          (there's
          a word in Yiddish for the OJ Simpson trial?)).  The Sports
          Server is pretty self-explanatory.

          So, that's today's stop.  If you have a Web browser, point
          it http://www2.nando.net/nt/nando.cgi  and use the 50 cents
          a day that you spend on USA Today for a Coke :)

Kaitlin's Guide to Alternative hardware and Software on the EASI Web
Kaitlin's Guide to alternative hardware and software describes aa wide variety
of products and includes information about manufacturers and vendors,
addresses, phone numbers, etc.  It does not try to be complete, but it does
provide an excellent selection of hardware and software information and
resources.  Below is the top page with pointers to input, output, directories.
This is a very useful addition to the materials on our web site.

   This guide is intended primarily for individuals with physical and/or
   sensory limitations that restrict their effective use of standard
   input and output devices (ie., keyboards, mice, monitors). However,
   many of the products listed may be of interest to individuals who
   suffer from chronic pain conditions, eye strain, headaches, neck and
   shoulder pains, or wrist pains after an extended period of computer
   use. Use of some of these alternatives may reduce the risk of
   repetitive stress injury.

National Council on Disability on the EASI Web
EASI is pleased to have a comprehensive set of documents produced by the
National Council on Disability added to the EASI web site located at:
http://www.rit.edu/~easi
On the top menu or home page, there is a pointeer to National Council on
Disability.  The documents include 3 reports on NCD activities to the President
and Congress, a complete set of NCD monthly bulletins, a complete set of
minutes from the NCD tech watch and a number of very large and comprehensive
studies of various disability issues.  Below is the page for the NCD materials
which will let you glimpse what materials are available.

This is an important new resource on the internet.  The Council works hard to
keep abrest of contemporary disability issues, and this has meant recently an
increasing concern for information technology issues.

NCD adds new materials monthly if not more frequently.  Readers who like to
keep up on such activities will need to check this page on a regular basis.

    The National Council on Disability is an independent federal agency
   with a fifteen member board appointed by the President and confirmed
   by the Senate, established to advise the administration and Congress
   on public policy affecting people with disabilities. In developing our
   recommendations, we gather and synthesize input from people around the
   country with various disabilities, backgrounds, and views.

Item #42  Bus Schedules On The Web
From: Kelly Ford kford@TELEPORT.COM
Subject: Web Page of Interest
Fellow Web Browsers,
Point your favorite web browser to http://www.tri-met.org to see an
example of how bus schedules and transit information can be made
accessible using the world wide web.  Then go to your own transit
department and tell them you want access to bus schedules.

This is a web site for Portland's transit department.  I'm pretty
impressed with how they've put the bus schedules online.

Item #43  Greeting Cards On The Web
From: Kelly Ford kford@TELEPORT.COM
Every so often I find a way of making my life fundamentally easier
with the assistance of a computer.  The latest can be found at
http://www.outpost.net.  This is a web site intended to allow you to
send everything from greeting cards to post cards to good old paper
mail addresses using your favorite web browser.

The thing I find especially handy is that the site has descriptions of
the cards so you don't have to hastle with going to the traditional
stationary store when you want to send a greeting card.  I don't know
about the rest of you, but I've always found trips to the card store
to be, at best, adventures in tedium.  I usually end up standing
around while a friend hunts through cards, reading selected ones.

Item #44  Voice communications over the net
Check out the archives available at http://www.cnet.com.  They had some
good articles about internet voice communications.
This is the site for the computer show seen on the Sci Fi and USA

     A text only version of the page will then soon be returned to
   your address as an email message. Obviously the layout and style of
   the page will be very different from the original Web version, but
   the original hyper-text links to other pages are referenced at the
   foot of the message.
     Please remember that many WWW pages have not been specifically
   designed to be viewed in this way and will probably  have
   originally included graphics, links and various layout styles.

Item #46  OMNIMEDIA ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING
  WELCOME TO OMNIMEDIA ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING!
   VISIT OUR BOOKSTORE 
   OmniMedia is a pioneer in the new and exciting realm of electronic
   books! What are electronic books that everybody is talking about? An
   electronic book is just like an ordinary paper book except that the
   information is contained in a datafile and accessed electronically. As
   technology progresses, especially with the inevitable development of
   very high resolution, easy-to-read, yet inexpensive flat screens, some
   experts foresee that electronic books will essentially replace paper
   books within about 20 years, just like digital CD's have essentially
   replaced analog LP's as our primary audio storage medium.
   
   But you don't have to wait 20 years to experience the pleasure and
   advantages of electronic books. OmniMedia is now publishing electronic
   books that can be read and enjoyed on your own computer, and you can
   download them right here!
   
   All of our electronic books are formatted specifically for Windows 3.1
   systems (note on Windows95). Fully hypertexted, aesthetically
   pleasing, well-designed, and easy to use, we're sure you'll enjoy
   them. Some even have full text search capability! Now, can a paper
   book do all of these things?
   
   We offer titles by contemporary authors as well as reissues of famous
   classics from the past. Please feel free to Visit our Bookstore and
   browse around.
   
   And if you are an author/writer, and are interested in having
   OmniMedia publish your work(s) as hypertext electronic books --
   essentially risk free -- then read more about our Publishing Service.
   
   
   Do continue to revisit our bookstore in the future as new titles
   will continually be added. For your convenience, add a bookmark to
   this page now!

Item #47  Mercury Center
I am not sure how many people already are aware of this, but if you
have web access check out
http://www.sjmercury.com
it is the San Jose Mercury News on-line
Some of it is free, and some requires a $5 per month subscription.
Believe me it is a bargain.  The latest thing they have added is a
searchable archive of nearly all of their articles going back to 1985.
To use the search you must be a subscriber.  Until the end of October
it is free to subscribers and after that they will charge on a per
article downloaded basis.  The search will be free.  It is under the
LIbrary Promotion link on the opening menu.  I began playing with this
later than I should have last night and found myself still playing at
about 4 this morning.  I have never had 10 years of newspapers at my
finger tips before.  If you want more info check it out or feel free

Item #61  U S States On Home Pages
48 states have official home pages.  I found PA at http://www.state.pa.us
and suspect you can substitute any state code.  I learned of an 
information kiosk project which would provide a great deal of information 
as well as many common state forms.  It's not clear if these forms will 
be available from the web page or only at the kiosks.  What are other 
states doing in this area?  Should the terminals themselves be accessible 
to blind persons or is access through the web sufficient?

Item #65  Central Source Yellow Pages
     http://www.telephonebook.com
A company in Omaha, Nebraska, claims to have put on the Web the 
numbers for every business telephone in the USA.  While the big
telcos were sleeping, a small company has done the obvious.  Now
how long will it be before another small company put up phone 
numbers for the entire world -- and not just business, everyone?

Item #66  Travel Time Trip Planner
     http://www.vais.net/~traveltime/aircrhrq.html
Through forms-based queries, you can  check schedules
and availability for airlines, trains, rental cars, and hotels.  In some
cases, apparently, you can make reservations on-line.  I haven't 
used it to plan a trip yet, but it looks very tempting.  The question is
-- how complete is it?  Just like phone books (as above), you'd like
to go to one site to get the info and make the reservations for 
travel anywhere.

Item #67  EnviroLink Network

across the United States, conducting infrared astronomy research at
41,000 feet.  Under way right now, the project includes live
television, printed teacher's guides, lots of on-line background
information, and the opportunities to pose questions to the researchers
on-line.  (For those who cannot access or download this material directly, 
the teacher's guide and all the supporting material from the Web site
is available on IBM/Mac diskette from PLEASE COPY THIS DISK.

Item #76  THE ARMCHAIR SCIENTIST (LO SCIENZIATO IN POLTRONA)
a science magazine in English and Italian, by Loris Crudeli
    http://www.areacom.it/html/ita/loris/armchair.html
This one-person operation produces a science digest which
filters and selects material from the net.  It is intended to
stimulate the quest for a new way to do science, in spite of the
deluge of information going on in our society, by trying to become a true
'global scientist-philosopher with a new attitude toward 'knowledge
compression' instead of the current trend towards lengthy essays, 
confused repetitions, unuseful publications.
 
Item #77  Free Services Page from NetMind
   http://www.netmind.com/
Here you find hyperlinks to a variety of useful, free services available 
on the Web.  To be included on this page, a free service must do more
than provide on-line information; it must perform a customized service
for the user.  Services on this page don't just tell you something, or
let you tell someone else something; they do something for you.
Most importantly, they do it for free.  There's lot's of good stuff
here, including their own URL-minder (see below).

Item #78  URL-minder from NetMind
   http://www.netmind.com/URL-minder/URL-minder.html
This is an almost great idea.  You find a Web page with great stuff, but you
don't want to bother to keep going back until there's something new there.
It would be handy to get a brief email reminder when more of what you 
want to see is available.  Netmind provides these kinds of alerts as a 
free service.  (Apparently, they plan to make their money by attaching
paid advertising messages to the email reminder notes.)  You can register
at their site for whatever Web pages you want to be notified about.  And
if you have your own Web sites, you can download a brief chunk of 
code from Netmind and cut and paste into your pages, so visitors at your
site will be able to fill out a short form and get alerted about your pages.
This looked so good, we tried it at our site for a few weeks.  The problem
is that any simple cosmetic or maintenance change in your pages triggers
a message to all the folks who said they were interested.  So what should
be helpful tool, turns out to be a nuisance.  
   All they'd need to do to make this much better, would be to allow
the person maintaining a page to make a judgement as to whether a
change was worthy of note.

Item #79  NetBuddy (Web Watcher)
from Internet Solutions
   http://www.internetsol.com/netbuddy.html)
NetBuddy is a very different approach to the problem noted above --
finding out when sites you are interested in have been updated.
In this case, you download a free program (for Windows 3.1), and 
this software watches the web for you.  NetBuddy keeps a
list of Internet web locations which you want it to watch.  Then
it automatically checks these sites at a frequency you decide. If
any of these sites have changed (have new information), NetBuddy
lights up that site in its list to let you know something's different
there.  Unfortunately, this approach has the same drawback as
the URL-minder -- every little cosmetic, maintence change to a
page looks the same as if significant content had been added.

Item #80  Excite (Web Search Engine)
   http://www.excite.com
This is probably the best free Internet search service available today.
It's easy to use, and must have an enormous data base to find some
of the stuff it comes up with.  But it also has an annoying quirk --
results aren't repeatable.  For instance, a few days ago I did a search 
for electronic texts on diskette and found excerpts
from nearly every issue of Internet-on-a-Disk and the PLEASE COPY 
THIS DISK catalog.  Today I did the exact same search and found
none of those documents.  Likewise, yesterday, for the fun of it, I
searched for the meaning of life,; and the first hit was a fun one --
a site that will send you email alerts whenever the meaning of life 
changes.  I tried the same search today, and all I got was pointers
to information on life insurance.

Item #81  Webwhacker
from Forefront Group
   http://www.ffg.com/
This software lets you save Web pages locally on your PC so you
can display them later with your Web browser even if you don't
have an Internet connection.  You can produce similar results
by brute force -- renaming files same in disk cache and changing
all the links to graphics images etc. so they point locally -- but this
software makes it all very easy and quick.  I use it to capture examples
I want to use in delivering speeches and presentations about what's
happening on the Internet.  (For slides of such a talk, with live rather
than local links, check http://www.tiac.net/users/samizdat/title2.html)
     This tool could also be very useful for teachers, who may have 
access to a computer for classroom use, but probably don't have a
phone line or Internet connection in the classroom.  From a PC at
home or in the library or computer center, you can find the pages you 
want to show in class and save them on a diskette.  Then   in class,
using a PC with a Web browser (such as Netscape 2.0) you can open 
local files on your diskette -- giving the full impact of Web-based
images and information, with all the look and feel of a live connection.
    The beta version of this software is available to download for
a free 30-day trial; then, if you want, you can buy it from them on-line.
(This is the second piece of software which I have bought on-line.
The first was the Internet Phone).

 NEWS RELEASE
 U.S. Government Printing Office

 For Release:  IMMEDIATE
               December 1, 1995

 Release No. 95-33
 Contact: 202-512-1991

 GPO ACCESS NOW FREE!
 GOVERNMENT INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO INTERNET/DIAL-IN USERS

 The U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) announces free use
 of its award-winning GPO Access online service beginning
 December 1, 1995.  All Internet and dial-in users can now
 receive electronically, at no charge, the Congressional
 Record, Federal Register, congressional bills, and a growing
 list of important government documents on the same day of
 publication.

 We believe the public should have timely access to vital
 information about the activities of their government without
 charge, says head of the GPO, Public Printer Michael F.
 DiMario.  This service is made possible through the
 congressional funding of the Federal Depository Library
 Program at a time when more and more citizens are receiving
 their information by computer.

 The GPO Access service was created by an Act of Congress in
 1993 and went online in June 1994.  The service earned the
 1994 Federal Technology Leadership Award and a 1995 James
 Madison Award sponsored by the Coalition on Government
 Information.

 Until now, GPO Access has been free only to users on-site in
 some 600 of the Nation's nearly 1,400 Federal Depository
 Libraries and to remote users connecting through over 20
 depository library gateways.  It was available to others
 on a subscription basis for a low fee.  Under the new
 program, the subscription fee has been dropped and refunds
 of unused portions will be sent to current subscribers.

 DiMario emphasizes that depository libraries will continue
 as an essential link between GPO Access and the public.
 Citizens lacking either computers or computer skills can
 visit a local depository for assistance, he explains.

 The new system now gives equal and free access to those
 utilizing a depository library and to those who are linked
 already by dial-up or Internet connections to electronic
 information.  As the Federal Depository Library Program
 becomes more electronic in nature, additional databases will
 be available through GPO Access. Since its creation in 1994,
 the number of databases offered online via GPO Access has
 increased from seven to more than two dozen.

 Government databases can be reached via the Internet or by
 dial-in through a modem.

        Internet users can access the databases with a
        World Wide Web browser through the Superintendent
        of Documents' home page at:
        http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/ or with
        WAIS client software.

        Internet users can also telnet to
        swais.access.gpo.gov; then login as guest.

        Dial-in users should use a modem to call
        202-512-1661; type swais and then login as guest.

 In more than 20 States, users with modems can connect to GPO
 Access through depository library gateways with a local
 phone call.  Listings of depository libraries and gateways
 can be found on the Superintendent of Documents' home page.

 General information on accessing these databases is
 available by:

        e-mail - help@eids05.eids.gpo.gov

        phone - 202-512-1530

        fax - 202-512-1262

 Questions about the GPO Access service can also be directed
 to a nearby Federal Depository Library.  At least one such
 library is located in each congressional district.

Free National On-Line Phone Book
Is Ante for Ambitious Net Repository

By  ROB FIXMER

In the scramble to bring secure e-mail and retail transactions to
the World Wide Web, a new division of Banyan Systems, Inc., the Westboro,
 Mass.-based LAN
company, made an ambitious play this week. It introduced a free, national,
on-line telephone directory designed to evolve into a vast clearinghouse
of e-mail addresses, personal information and -- most important -- encrypted
ID's. The foundation product of the new service, known as Switchboard, is a
free white pages data base of the telephone listings and addresses of 93
million people and 11 million businesses nationwide, coupled with a high-speed
search engine. Although similar data bases are available on CD-ROM's,
Switchboard distinguishes itself in two significant ways: the seemingly
impossible speed of its search results and the fact that it is
merely a foundation that Banyan has designed to evolve into something much more
ambitious.  In short, the phone directory is free because Banyan is banking
on its growing into a vast  and profitable directory of e-mail addresses
and business affiliations -- with a unique privacy scheme known as KnockKnock
-- and a leading repository of digital certificates, an encryption technology
that promises privacy in communications. Many on-line retailers consider
digital certificates the best hope for enabling secure credit-card
transactions on the Web.

Switchboard, which is built on Banyan's StreetTalk scalable directory
architecture and runs on Windows NT Pentium servers, is lightning fast, among
the most robust data bases to emerge on the Web. While the
search engine allows users to enter first and last names, cities and states, a
nationwide search of even the most common surnames produces
virtually instantaneous results. For example, when Beverley Hsiao, a
producer at The New York Times Electronic Media Company, entered only her
last name on Thursday afternoon, Switchboard responded instantly with page
after page of Hsiao listings throughout the United States, including her
own address and phone number in New York City.

While hers is a relatively common Chinese surname, Hsiao said: I didn't know
the name was that common. I browsed through about 130 listings -- and those
were only the ones with first names that started with the letters
A through C.

To discourage trivial use of the service, the company disabled total counts
when common names are searched. Switchboard is produced by Coordinate.com,
Banyan's new Internet division with headquarters in Burlington, Mass. The
company says that it provides only publicly available information (no
unlisted numbers) provided by Database America Companies, Inc. of Montvale,
N.J., which specializes in gathering and selling business and consumer
information.

One of the more interesting features of Switchboard is the fact that
registered users (registration is also free) are allowed to modify or even
remove their own listings, adding a measure of control over their electronic
identities. Once registered, you can, for example, add information like your
e-mail address or business affiliations to your listing. The KnockKnock scheme,
 which the company
compares to Caller ID on telephones, is an optional privacy screen that lets
people contact you via e-mail even if you have chosen not to make your e-mail
address public. You can choose to use Switchboard as an intermediary; the
service will forward e-mail to you, and the sender will see your address
only if you respond. Switchboard helps people find people, and to be found
by those they want to hear from,  John M. Paul, Coordinate.com's senior vice
president said in a company statement.

The company's venture into encrypted transactions arises from a partnership
announced last Friday with VeriSign Inc., which makes public key
certificates, encrypted digital codes that two parties must exchange in
order to conduct secure communications, whether it be a business letter or a
credit card number.

While an encryption standard known as S/MIME, for Secure Multipurpose Internet
Mail Extension, is already widely accepted, what is lacking is critical mass
in the form of a central repository for key certificates. Such a repository
is essential because in order for secure communications to take place, users
must exchange digital certificates without compromising their encryption.
Banyan and VeriSign are betting that the free phone directory and impressive
search capabilities will attract enough registered users to catapult
Switchboard into the Internet's leading repository.

Coordinate.com's executives were on a transcontinental
flight on Thursday evening and unavailable for comment. Amy Bermar, a publicist
for the site, said that the company hoped to realize income from advertising
and from revenue sharing in its role as a repository of digital certificates.

Bermar said that in the first 48 hours after the site went up on Tuesday,
Switchboard handled more than 400,000 search requests from Web users.
That tells me it's attracting sufficient traffic to merit advertising,
Bermar said.

has an unofficial site at

        There is a text only link on  his home page.
        I asked several questions of Ron about the new hardware/software
release and was told the following:
        The new internal card will support changes already existing in
the Dec Express in terms of hardware features; e.g., indexing to the
phoneme level.
        As for software, the current version for the Dec Express is
v4.2-A plus and v4.2-B for the internal card.  Version 4.2-C will be
released shortly and will, for the first time, combine both Express and
DecTalk PC software features.  From that point on, all software releases
will be for both synthesizers.
        I addressed several other questions to Ron and he promised to
respond in E-Mail with the understanding that I would make his answers
available on this list.

should

1. type in a business name,
2. press the tab key, and then
3. press enter to submit your inquiry...

or, (assuming you're using LYNX), if you press the down arrow
three times when the page is first loaded, the cursor will be
placed in a second text-entry field in which you can enter a
business/service type (i.e. adaptive software or drug

itself, press the up arrow twice, as soon as the page loads, and
choose the highlighted link NYNEX Interactive Yellow Pages and
National Business Directory Search Engine....
if anyone knows of any other speech-friendly directories that are
not listed at my site, please let me know and i will try to add a
direct link and (if possible) a search-submission form for them
to my site...  let me know about the inaccessible ones as well,
and i'll not only add my voice to the effort to get their owners
to provide text-only versions, but will also try to de- and re-
construct their search submission forms into a speech-friendly
format and add them to my ever-evolving list.

Item #122  The Science Learning Network
From: Kelly Ford kford@TELEPORT.COM
The Science Learning Network (SLN) is a collection of museums who have put
together an impressive web site filled with interactive web-based scientific
explorations.  You can reach this site at http://www.sln.org/resources.html.

I am surprised at how accessible this site is given the complex nature of
some of the demonstrations.  It isn't perfect but most of the inaccessible
parts are more due to challenges of presentation the subject (such as
diagrams and pictures of how things are to look) than poor web design.  This
is an excellent example of where some of the enhancements to web pages
(descriptive video and captioning) being promoted by places like WGBH, The
Trace R&D Center and everyone interested in web accessibility would be
especially handy.  Perhaps folks will write to the designers of the SLN
sites and suggest this enhancement.

I must say that my personal favorite on this site is The Thinking Fountain.
For a person who's interested in exploring things from many different
avenues this is an excellent site and very accessible to boot.
You can reach the SLN home page at http://www.sln.org.

Seedlings Braille Books for Children provides blind children with high
quality literature in braille at affordable prices thereby increasing the
rate of braille literacy among the blind.  Call 1-800-777-8552 for a
free catalog and information.

Seedlings provides braille books for infants through middle school.  All
books are sold at or near cost to produce.  Infant-toddler books are the
print book with braille added.  This enables both blind and sighted parents
and siblings to read to a blind child.  The blind child can also read them
to a sighted, younger child.

Favorite titles include The Touch Me Book, Brown Bear, Brown Bear What
Do You See?, and Animal ABC's.

For beginning readers there are a number of titles in braille and print
only, without pictures.  Perennial favorites such as The Cat in the Hat,
by Dr. Seuss, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad
Day, by Judith Viorst, and some Sesame Street books are featured.

Books for older children use grade two interpoint braille (braille on both
sides of the page).  Judy Blume's Superfudge, E. B. White's Charlotte's
Web, and Beverly Cleary's Ramona series are among the most frequently
ordered titles.

As Seedlings is a non-profit organization and must fund raise the
difference in the cost of production and the price of the books, donations
and memorials and contributions in honor of birthdays, anniversaries, and
other special events are always welcomed.

order.

Url:  http://www.usnews.com
                U.S. News Online is the web site for the award-winning
                newsweekly, U.S. News & World Report. We provide the
                same outstanding political coverage, national and
                international news and analysis, and essential

Item #208  Net Smart
     Url:  http://www.macworld.com/pages/december.96/Column.2893.html
     Web search engines pop up like dandelions in spring, and it's
     tedious to test them for accuracy and timeliness. We'd like to
     thank Macworld's Charles Seiter for doing just that. Macworld is
     kind enough to put its articles online, and you can read
     Charles's report at the URL below. Essentially, he gives high
     marks to Infoseek Ultra, and merely passing grades to the best of
     the rest. If you do a lot of Web searches, this is a must read.

Item #209  gDisInformation Web Site
Url:  http://www.disinfo.com/disInfo/HOME_megawww.html
     Billing itself as a "complete information service for dangerous
     minds", DisInformation aims to be the Yahoo for the "X-Files"
     crowd. It even boasts an X-File/zen-like tag line: "Everything
     you know is wrong" (except for the URL, of course). DisInfo
     categorizes its 30 million indexed documents as Propaganda
     (exploring media manipulation); Counterintelligence (political
     and environmental issues, monitoring of the far right);
     Censorship; Revolutionaries (such as William Burroughs, Timothy
     Leary, Andy Warhol); Counterculture (conspiracy theory, UFOs, and
     general "high weirdness" on the Web); and Newspeak (current
     events). It's a slick site that probably wears its
     counter-culture, subversive data dump guise a bit too
     aggressively, but it does offer a quick portal to some of the
     more oddball and interesting sites on the Web.

Item #214  free Linux operating system
From: Hans Zoebelein zocki@GOLDFISH.CUBE.NET
Since some people didn't know what Linux is and wanted to know more
about it, here we go:

   Linux is a freely available UNIX like operation system for x86,
   Motorola 68k, Digital Alpha and PowerPC machines. Linux was
   originally written by a guy from Helsinki, Finland. His name is Linus
   Torvalds. After over 2 years, Linux has become one of the most popular
   free unixes available, and is continually being developed by Linus and
   teams of people all around the world.

   The Linux kernel is covered by the Gnu Public License (GPL), and is
   usually bundled with various binaries that comprise a working Unix
   operating system. You get the source code of Linux also for free and
   you can inspect the fascinating interior of an operation system.


If you want to find out more about the famous free Linux operating system
fire up your WWW browser and  visit http://www.linux.org. There you will
find nearly everything about Linux.

   lives and restore their dignity and self-respect.

I have a "blind sports" web page I've been working on slowly.  I wanted

My hope is to include anything I can find related to participation of 
blind, low vision, and deaf-blind people in sports on any level and in 
any capacity, both in separate organizations and integrated settings.  

Please take a look at my page: 
and send me any sites you

NAG (as it's known) has a web page which is easily accessible but the e-mail

have his own e-mail which I will pass on to you. 

http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~jbeal/ is something which John Sanders e-mailed

Item #254     the Bible Browser
   http://goon.stg.brown.edu/bible_browser/sponsors.shtml
   The Bible Browser is a simple, fast World-Wide Web front-end to a
   full-text biblical search/retrieval system called pBible. Put in more
   down-to-earth terms, the Bible Browser (and pBible) are cool Web-based
   tools for exploring the Bible in ways that just aren't possible with
   old-style printed texts.
   
   Neither the Bible Browser nor pBible was written to further any
   particular theological agenda. I wrote them, rather, as an aid for my
   students while I was teaching at the University of Chicago, and as a
   way of helping people in general explore a document that is
   fundamental to Judaeo-Christian culture. For more in-depth discussion
   of its various features, see the [6]Bible Browser Users' Guide. If you
   are a K-12 teacher thinking of using the Bible Browser in a
   bibliography or reading list, take a look at my [7]Bible as Literature
   paper.

The New York Institute for Special Education

Adapted access is available for persons with disabilities
                 __________________________________________
The New York Institute for Special Education(NYISE) is a private,
non-profit, non-sectarian educational facility with quality
programs for children who are blind or visually disabled, emotionally
and learning disabled and pre-schoolers who are developmentally
delayed.
The school was founded in 1831 as The New York Institution for the
Blind as one of the first schools in the United States to provide an
educational programs for children who were blind or visually impaired.
Early in the twentieth century, the name was changed to The New York
Institute for the Education of the Blind to emphasize the educational
character of the school. A pictorial history of the school and a
collection of disability links are available at this site.
Today, our Schermerhorn Program continues its rich tradition of
educating children who are blind or visually impaired. We have also
used this expertise to develop new programs to help children with
other disabilities.
In the 1980's educators recognized the need to provide programs
designed specifically for students with learning and emotional
disabilities. In response to this need, the school established the
Van Cleve Program for those children who could not be served in a
traditional school setting. In 1986, the school's name was changed to
The New York Institute for Special Education to better reflect this
expanded focus and commitment to children with a variety of
disabilities. In 1987, a program for developmentally delayed
pre-schoolers was established called the Readiness Program. .
Nearly 300 students from ages 3 to 21 now attend NYISE. The school
offers the option of a day treatment program or a five day residential
program. All students return home on weekends and holidays. An
Individualized Education Plan is developed for each student. In
addition, a full array of services is provided, which include
counseling, career guidance, therapy, individual and team sports
and adaptive and recreational activities.

the Americans with Disability Act.  More fundamentally, the
principle of universal access is an essential standard of an
advanced civilization. "We must build a planet that utilizes
all the abilities of every citizen." - Carl Rashke
The Barrier-Free Education Web site provides useful
information to teachers, parents and students - people who
are not disability experts - about fulfilling the promise of
equal access to education. The site has information on tools
and strategies to accommodate specific disabilities.  The
site includes guidelines for curricular modifications,
principally lessons for math and science. To help users find
disability information quickly, the site has an annotated
compilation of Internet resources.
               A Technology for Partnership
The site is based on the philosophy that significant
understanding is distributed through our school systems and
that the Internet can provide a mechanism for sharing this
expertise.
Through the use of the Internet, teachers who have had
experience with disabled students can be linked with people
new to this domain of educational responsibility.
               An Open Mind with Resources
There is no set solution for educational accommodation of
students with disabilities. Each human being is unique.
Consequently, the process of accommodation - finding a way
for a teacher to explain a specific concept to a student -
requires both resources and open minded customization of
lessons. This creative act of teaching is the inherent
purpose of education.
               The Value of Collaboration
The design of Barrier-Free Education assumes that teachers,
parents, and students are more than willing to share the
insights gained from their successes. Solutions to many
problems can not be found by bright people working alone.
Rather, we need to share the insights born of both our
achievements and our failures. In an age of burgeoning
complexity, the need for interdisciplinary cooperation is
vital.

Item #291  THE FAQ FINDER
http://ps.superb.net/FAQ/
Some of the best (and least-used) resources on the Internet are

looking for
answers to questions ranging from "what is the fastest NASCAR
superspeedway" to "where can I find information about embedded
processors
and enhanced IDE/Fast-ATA/ATA-2," chances are there is a FAQ file
somewhere
on the Internet that answers your question.
The problem is finding the FAQ file.
Enter the FAQ Finder.  The FAQ Finder can be found on the Web at
     http://ps.superb.net/FAQ/
and it has links to 1,800 FAQ files around the world.  Best of
all, the FAQ
finder has sorted these FAQ files into 28 browsable categories:
     Animals       Health           Politics & Law
     Art           Hobby            Programming
     Audio         Internet         Religion
     Comedy        Lifestyles       Science
     Computers     Literature       Social Science

     Education     Music            Sports
     Food          People           Technology
     Games         Prsnl Finance    TV Shows
     ... and, of course, Video
In short, if you have a question that you think might have been
asked
before, chances are that the FAQ Finder will be able to give you
a link to
a site where you can find the answer to your question.
Browsing through the FAQ Finder's categories is pretty easy.  If
you click
on a category, the FAQ Finder will display all of the FAQ links
that it
feels belong in that category.  And with 1,800 FAQ links, the FAQ
Finder
opens the door to one heck of a lot of information!
Who would have guessed that FAQ browsing could be so much fun?

Item #316  Software For The Blind Or Disabled Computer User
http://http.bsd.uchicago.edu/adaptive-software/
   This web site, managed by Karl Dahlke, contains software for the
   blind, dyslexic, or motor impaired user, who for whatever reason,
   cannot manipulate the mouse or negotiate windows easily. Some
   applications such as the interactive calculator or the genealogy
   manager seem unrelated to this goal, yet they exist because their
   counterparts, available for $39.95 on retail shelves, all run under
   MS-Windows, and [1]force a graphical interface upon the user. In many
   cases I was forced to reinvent the wheel to fit my nonstandard axle.
   By placing this software in the public domain, I hope others are not
   forced to do the same. Unfortunately I haven't the time or resources
   to reinvent Quicken, TurboTax, It's Legal, or other powerful programs
   that would make my life much simpler.
   Of course you don't have to be disabled to enjoy some of the unique
   features of these programs. Several hundred sighted individuals run my
   genealogy system, simply because they prefer a line-oriented
   interface. Send any comments or suggestions, or references to other
   salient packages, to
   eklhad@bio-3.bsd.uchicago.edu;
   or call me at
   Phone:  810-524-1004

Item #317  Theater By The Blind
   Theater By The Blind (TBTB), an integrated company of blind, visually
   impaired and sighted artists, was started because there was no other
   organization in the U.S. dedicated to finding, developing and
   exhibiting blind theater artists. We hope to accomplish five things
   through our work:
   1.To make blind and visually impaired performers and writers as known
   as Marlee Maitlin and our recent Miss America so they reflect back to
   our society the ability, not any disability of the blind, and change
   the perception of the visually impaired from Hollywood's image of
   vulnerable women and superhuman men who can drive cars but can't walk
   down the street unattended, to our reality of full, resonant lives
   lived with verve and humor,
   2. To develop, or restore, the theatergoing habit in the visually
   impaired, become their home base and send them out to enjoy the many
   other theatergoing pleasures of New York City and beyond,
   3. To allow the blind to see themselves on stage and to become
   acquainted with the range of dramatic literature,
   4. To allow the sighted to enter the world of the blind, and
   5. To unite sighted and blind, artists and audience, in a shared
   aesthetic experience that bridges the gap between them.

ACCS LABS is a privately funded, Electronics Research & Development group.
The work is fun, inovative, & leading edge. Electronic gadgets and other

the same fashon as the magazine verson. Let me explain: I'm a gadget nut. If
it's electronic and marketed well; i'll usually be a sucker and buy the
thing. I WIND UP BUYING A LOT OF JUNK! Many times I am dissapointed. The
quality is either poor or the device barely functions within it's advertised
parameters. When it's a klunker, I want to tell the world and force these
'bad boys' to improve their quality. When it works good I want to tell
everyone about it. Good products deserve the publicity. So, I have taken it
upon my self to use my personal web page to promote some of the good guys
and critique a few klunkers. In that respect, this web page may actually
perform a desireable and free public service. Now & then I stumble upon a
really cool DEVICE you might want to see for yourselves. When I do, I'll
tell you about it here or provide a link to their page. Just incase you want
to contact me: There are several interesting and fun ways to contact HANK.
The following lists some of the ways, in decending technology: You can use
Vocaltec's I-PHONE~Topic: HANK(PRIV) which is on the Information

Telephone (913) 893-6939

    How do you shop if you are visually impaired?  For most it is with a great
deal of difficulty.
  It takes family, friends or volunteers to get you places if public transporta
tion isn't available,
  or to help  you find what your looking for or to read a catalog to you.
    That's why  I, Kathy Eble started Home Readers.  I have been visually impai
red since
  childhood and have experienced all of the above.  Now I am married and my hus
band is sighted
  but often is to tried after a hard day at work to go shopping.  Most of my gi
rl friends have family
  and /or jobs making it hard to get together for shopping trips.  I thought if
 I had these problems
  there must be others with the same difficulties.   Together I, and my husband
 started  purchasing
  equipment and paying stay-at-home mothers to read.
    Now you can enjoy the convenience of shopping from home with Home Readers p
rint catalogs
  on tape. Home Readers offers a variety of popular catalogs on audio cassettes
. Our readers take
  care to describe the critical details like patterns, styles and colors that c
atalog writers typically
  depend on pictures to convey. These added details help the visually- and read
ing impaired to
  make more accurate selections for  purchase.
   Our current titles  are all produced  only in four track Library of Congress
 format . These can only
  be played if you have  a Library of Congress  player or equivilent.

Item #353  Blue Wolf Network - Email That Talks
From: John Barrows bluewolf@sirius.com
Em'ly is a Text-To-Speech Plug-In for the Eudora email client. She
functions in both Eudora Light and Pro, version 3.0 or higher, for
Windows 95 and NT. Em'ly was developed as a multi-tasking tool for
home and office. Having email scanned and read aloud as it is being
received, allows the user to perform other office functions which require
visual or manual focus away from the computer screen. With user
customizable preference settings, Em'ly requires a minimum of keyboard
manipulation and attention, after initial configuration, to quickly review
and sort new mail. Em'ly also allows persons with visual impairments to
handle email easier and can help young children or persons with reading
difficulties to use electronic mail. In a multi-person office or classroom
setting, earphones can allow Em'ly to read mail in private to the intended
recipient. Em'ly is inexpensive and simple to use. Future upgrades will
allow simple voice recognition commands to eliminate keyboard activity,
foreign language voices, and enhanced voice quality. Em'ly Executive's
customizable settings include 1. How much of the message header is read 2.
How much if each message is read before automatically scanning to the next,
3. Selection of keyboard commands to file and prioritize mail for later
review , 4. The creation of personalized announcements for specific
senders, and 5. a speech dictionary which allows each user to tailor the
pronunciation of any word to his/her preference.

   Cleveland Sight Center founded more than 90 years ago by seven

   impairment learn, work, play and live independently.

   for disabled persons have changed. For years we were known as The

   persons considered incapable of caring for themselves. Today, the
   individual is first, vision impairment second and capabilities
   unlimited.

   The Panhellenic Association of the Blind was established in 1932 and
   it is the first organisation of the blind for the blind and for all
   the other handicapped in Greece.
   Its 60-year-old course completes an interesting history of social and
   syndicalistic actions, which started in the '30s.
   From the very first moment the organised blind questioned the
   uninvited intervention of charity and all its negative consequences.
   They claimed bravely and effectively the right to work, education and
   equal participation in life.

Item #432  Personal Computer systems - Speech Friendly Games
http://www.thesocket.com/~henrich/ftpfiles.htm
ftp.softcon.com/textgame/pcs/
Personal Computer Systems is a company which is operated and
maintained by blind programmers.  P C S is interested in providing
fast action, fun, and exciting computerized board and arcade games
for the blind.  In our board games, everything is described with
all the necessary details as the game is being played and any
information such as position or score may be obtained by hitting a
key. 

     In visual arcade games, players aim at objects using graphics
or pictures, but in our arcade games we have the player aim by
using their ears to hear a tone or a series of beeps to hit a
target.  Thus, the impossible to play eye hand video game becomes
an easy to play ear hand audio game.  We believe that the same
enjoyment can be achieved by a blind person playing our games as a
sighted person gets playing a video game.  Playing sounds through
a sound card will be used to enhance and blend with the operation
of our programs.

Item #437  Learn2.com - Online Tutorials
http://www.learn2.com
   Here are some of the most commonly-asked questions about Learn2.com.
   If you have any more questions, feel free to contact us at
   info@Learn2.com
   What exactly is this?
   Learn2.com is "the ability utility." - a unique information site
   available free of charge to anyone with access to the World Wide Web.
   We provide step-by-step instructions--known as "2torials"--on a wide
   spectrum of skills, activities and tasks. We try to use friendly,
   accessible language and graphics, and our format is designed for
   everyday use by just about everyone.
   So it's an educational site?
   Not in the conventional sense. It's not geared at cramming facts into
   your head, but at giving you the information you need to do stuff.
   Learn2.com teaches everything from the essentials of everyday life
   (such as balancing your checkbook, or setting the clock on your VCR)
   to the esoteric (how to paint faux-marble finishes or wear a sarong).
   There are a zillion websites. What's so special about this one?
   There are two things that make this site especially noteworthy: It's
   actually useful. And it's easy to use.
   In a time when the vast majority of websites seem to be coasting on
   novelty value alone, Learn2.com intends to offer a substantial amount
   of content. Not just passive content, but solid information that
   produces tangible benefits for all who visit. Moreover, this
   information is provided quickly and efficiently, with no
   unnecessarily-ornate graphics or distracting techno-gimmicks.

Item #440  Spam Out - Web Sites To Help rid yourself of junk email
Spam mail is an ever increasing problem on the Internet today --
certain domains exist exclusively to send out this electronic junk mail.
Any time you send your email address out on Internet, there's a possibility
that the receiving party could put your address on a list that one of these
spammers will use to send you unsolicited mail.  Also, keep in mind that
your address may be added to a spammer's list if you post to the USENET
(Internet message areas) or leave your E-mail address on a web page.  Even
if you're careful, however, you'll likely still see a few unsolicted mail
messages.
As there currently are no laws regulating Internet junk E-mail, there is
very little that we as an ISP can do to filter mail: one of the most
flagrant spammers, Cyberpromo, will bring a lawsuit against nearly any
large ISP which engages in the filtering of its mail.  Even then, as these
companies often change the look of their E-mail (ie, sending the mail
from different locations, from different accounts), it would be impossible
for an ISP to accurately and consistantly delete unsolicited mail using
filters.
That doesn't mean that you can't fight back!  There are a number of good
sites on the Internet which provide information on how to avoid spam, and
how to fight back when you're on the receiving end.  Here are a few sites
which we recommend:
        http://www.cnet.com/Content/Features/Howto/Spam/index.html
        http://digital.net/~gandalf/spamfaq.html
        http://spam.abuse.net/spam/
All these pages have a wealth of information regarding how to defend
yourself against unwanted mail and other types of SPAM. I'm certain that
one of the above sites will be able to assist you in clearing your mailbox
of this trash.
If you have questions regarding unsolicited E-mail of this type which
has originated from our site, please let us know by sending mail directly
to our abuse desk at:
                  abuse@execpc.com

Item #441  The Blinded Veterans Association

Item #444  The Christian Jew Foundation
http://www.cjf.org
    Email:  orderline@cjf.org
    We have a threefold mission:
   On the Air--Preaching - We have a daily radio program, Messianic
   Perspectives (formerly called The Christian Jew Hour,) which clearly
   explains Scripture so anyone can understand it.
   On the Press--Teaching - Available through our headquarters in San
   Antonio are books, tapes and other aids to understanding the Word of
   God. 
   On the Field--Witnessing - Since Christians are commanded to give the
   Gospel of Christ to the Jew first (Rom. 1:16), the CJF fields
   missionaries around the world to tell our Jewish brethren the Good
   News: that the Messiah for whom they are waiting has already come--He
   is Yeshua (Jesus).

Item #445  World Radio Network
http://wrn.org
                 If you're looking for a global perspective on current world events
       or trying to catch up with news from your homeland, World Radio
       Network can satisfy your audio needs. WRN carries live newscast
       audio streams in RealAudio and StreamWorks 24 hours a day
       from 25 of the world's leading public and international
       broadcasters.
       Listeners can hear the news live, in English (and other languages)
       direct from its source. The reporting of world events also takes
       on a new significance when heard through the eyes of reporters
       from other nations. In the end it's the listener who is able to
       judge what is said and thus gain a global perspective on world
       events.
       WRN is more than just news, and the programming has extensive
       coverage of the arts and culture, music, sports, science,
       developmental issues and much more. Not only is the scope wide but
       many of the broadcasters have extremely high production values and
       programmes are carefully crafted from material recorded by
       reporters who are often sent far afield.
       WRN is a new departure in international radio and embraces the
       programming of organisations who have existing shortwave services
       and wish to extend their audience and enter the new age of
       satellite and cable in good audio quality. As well as established
       domestic broadcasters who are making their first venture outside
       their borders perhaps to reach their expatriates or gain a new
       international following and prestige.
       The World Radio Network is 'the global perspective on the worlds
       news' from its source. For those living abroad or with roots in
       another country, you can keep in touch with home.
       There is also an important educational role in media, cultural
       and public affairs studies, with international radio being used in
       classrooms, lecture theaters and for personal research.
       Traditionally this programming was carried out by short-wave
       radio and this continues to be a potent medium with some areas of
       the world being better served than others.
       Today, broadcasts can be heard via direct-to-home satellite,
       cable systems and local relays on AM and FM. In addition, the
       Internet is gaining increasing importance for both live reception
       and audio-on-demand.
       This is a GATEWAY to International Radio Broadcasting and from
       this page you will able to travel around the world and hear what
       is happening in many nations and in many languages.

Item #458  The AFU & Urban Legends Archive And Web Site
   http://www.urbanlegends.com
   We are now broadcasting to an audience of 1 BILLION viewers every day!
   What is an Urban Legend?
   "An urban legend:
     * appears mysteriously and spreads spontaneously in varying forms
     * contains elements of humor or horror (the horror often "punishes"
       someone who flouts society's conventions).
     * makes good storytelling.
     * does NOT have to be false, although most are. ULs often have a
       basis in fact, but it's their life after-the-fact (particularly in
       reference to the second and third points) that gives them
       particular interest."

      Versatile Imager Processor (VIP)
By JBliss Imaging Systems
Using a personal computer with a special keypad and scanner, VIP Reading 
Systems make reading text and viewing pictures exciting and gratifying. 
 No computer knowledge is needed to operate the system.  The VIP systems 
provide for customized page and text configurations that best suit the 
users needs.

VIPinfoSoft Reading System
VIPinfoSoft creates a new way of making printed or electronic text and 
pictures optimally viewable by people with low vision. Xeroxs 
TextBridge OCR is used to provide easy adjustment of type font, letter 
spacing size, and color together with four different formats for viewing 
the text:  Marquee, RSVP, Word Wrap, and Image View.  In addition, 
AT&Ts highly intelligible Flextalk synthetic speech, synchronized with 
highlighted text shown on the screen, can be turned on in the RSVP and 
Word Wrap views.

VIPinfoSoft Plus Read/Write System
VIPinfoSoft Plus extends VIPinfoSoft to include functions for those with 
low vision to create, read, and reply to Email, write and edit memos, 
keep and access an address book, automatically dial a phone, exchange 
text with other windows applications via the clipboard, print text 
documents to any windows-supported printer, and save scanned documents 
to text files.

VIP Turnkey Systems 
Complete computer/scanner/monitor systems can be provided with either 
VIPinfoSoftTM or VIPinfoSoft PlusTM preinstalled.  Just plug it in and 
turn it on. Contact us for a quotation.

VIPinfoNetTM Internet Browser
This software package is an Internet browser designed especially for 
people with low vision.  It presents HTML files from the Internet in 
VIPs three OCR views.  In each of these views the font, color, size, 
and letter spacing can be adjusted.  Speech can be turned on in the RSVP 
and Word Wrap Views.  Pictures and graphics are downloaded separately 
and magnified with VIPs picture viewer.  There is a Table Viewer and 
both client-side and server side image maps are supported.  There is a 
built-in find word editor and search capability on the Internet with 
built-in Yahoo search.

EZVIPTM Reading System
EZVIP incorporates the same technologies as VIPinfoSoft, but the 
difference is EZVIP has a simpler user interface.  The concept is that a 
person, other than the user, will set up and configure the screens, text 
attributes, views, and speech parameters for the user.  Thus the user 
only controls a two button trackball, making operation even simpler than 
a CCTV since there are no focus or brightness adjustments, or x-y table 
to deal with.  Yet custom configuration feature enables optimal user 
performance.  Up to 99 custom configurations can be saved for multiple 
user situations.

Item #502  Federal Resources for Educational Excellence
http://www.ed.gov/free
 Riley Announces New One-Stop Web Site for
 Teaching & Learning Resources (April 8, 1998)
Hundreds of federal resources for teaching & learning can now be
found at one web site, U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W.
Riley announced today.
"This new web site, *Federal Resources for Educational
Excellence* (FREE), offers one-stop shopping for a treasure trove
of historical documents, scientific experiments, mathematical
challenges, famous paintings, and other tools for teachers &
students," Riley said.
A search of the web site produces dozens of resources for
teaching & learning from more than 35 federal agencies.
Thousands of topics can be searched -- the Civil War, the
Constitution, photosynthesis, condensation, immigration, Picasso,
Jefferson, Henry David Thoreau, Mary Cassatt, Jackie Robinson,
the Amistad Case, the America Reads Challenge, famous FBI cases,
cartography, genealogy, the Renaissance, calculus simulations,
"today in history," the human genome project, epidemiology, "the
African American odyssey," the solar system, the microbe zoo, and
others.  Resources can also be viewed in 12 subject areas.
"More than 35 federal agencies have collaborated for nearly a
year on this effort," Riley said.  "Their work -- this web site -
- offers a glimpse of how government can use technology to serve
citizens in ways barely dreamed of a decade ago."
The FREE site was developed in response to a directive President
Clinton issued nearly a year ago.  It can help make compelling
online resources available in every school, which is part of the
president's Technology Literacy Challenge.  The four goals of
this challenge are:
  *   All teachers will be trained to help students learn through
      computers & the information superhighway;
  *   All students & teachers will have access to modern
      computers;
  *   All schools & classrooms will be linked to the information
      superhighway; and,
  *   High-quality software & online resources will be part of the
      curriculum in every school.
"FREE is just a first step," Riley said.  "And it is more than
just another web site.  It is a place where federal agencies &
teachers can begin forming partnerships to develop additional
high-quality, standards-based resources for teaching & learning."
To that end, the Education Department today announced support for
up to seven partnerships of federal agencies & teachers, as well
as other organizations.  Each partnership will develop two
products:
  *   A set of Internet-based learning resources organized around
      a particular topic & tied to challenging academic standards.
      A set of resources might include, for instance, student
      activities, teaching ideas, primary documents, artifacts,
      scientific tools, and data sets; and,
  *   An Internet-based learning community -- a community of
      teachers, students & others who use & contribute to that set
      of resources.
Proposals must be submitted by federal agencies on behalf of each
partnership & must be received by May 19, 1998.  The invitation
requesting proposals & the complete application are at:
      http://www.ed.gov/free/980406.html
Teachers & organizations interested in participating are invited
to post a message on the "Looking for Partners" area of the FREE
web site, at:

The FREE web site is at:

Item #506  The Monster Board - Jobs And Employment
http://www.monster.com
        I visited a web site this evening i heard about on the NPR tv
station this evening called www.monster.com.  It is a job search and
resume listing site.  They have more than 50000 jobs listed in several
areas both nationally and internationally.  There is a section for
potential self-employment and even companies looking to find those
interested in franchize businesses.  There are several search
possibilities and you can enter a profile to have jobs searched for you
and so on.
        I accessed the site using Lynx 2.7 and though there are frames it
worked just perfectly at all areas with a text browser though I suspect it
is designed for a graphic browser primarily.  Just thought this might be
of value to some looking for work.

     news through the Believer's Voice of Victory magazine, our monthly

        available through the Believer's Voice of Victory television
                                 broadcast.
      Today, we are honored to extend the same great teaching of God's

   are able to fulfill the call on our lives to spread the truth of God's
                                   love.

      ministry tools found on the pages of this website. Through these
      articles, personal testimonies, Bible study notes and many other
    resource materials we present here, we are committed to teaching you
       how to live a life of faith and experience victory every day.
   We pray you like what you see, and that your application of this rich
    word in your life will result in supernatural spiritual growth. Plan
           now to visit here often. And remember - Jesus Is Lord!

In response to all the poorly implemented frames, unusable imagemaps,

fifteen minutes filling out the form, we have created Lynx Links. 

The sites reviewed in this digest are, naturally, Lynx-friendly.  But this
does not render them useless to users of those other browsers.  They are,
in fact, some of the best sites we've found on the net, and we highly
recommend them to all surfers, not just Lynx users.

We feature an eclectic mix of sites, reflecting the interests of our
staff.  But then, our staff consists of regular folks who surf around just
like you, so we're sure you'll find at least one bookmark-worthy gem in
each digest.

Item #543  Bell Labratories - Text To Speech Synthesis
http://www.bell-labs.com/project/tts/
MURRAY HILL, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE) via Individual Inc. -- Comprehensive,
Multi-Lingual Interactive TTS Web Site Features  German, English, Russian,
Chinese, French, Romanian, Italian, and  Spanish Demos

Can your PC actually speak your written text?  The answer, if you  visit the
newly-announced Bell Labs Text-to-Speech (TTS) Web site
(www.bell-labs.com/project/tts/), is a resounding yes.  Bell Labs,  the
research and development arm of Lucent Technologies -- which has  led the
industry in speech synthesis research over the past seven  decades -- has
designed the most comprehensive, interactive  multi-lingual TTS site on the Web,
which allows users to produce  natural speech in several languages (German,
French, Mexican, Romanian, Chinese, Russian, English, Italian) directly from
written  text.

"Speech is a sound signal used for language communication.  Bell  Labs
researchers, world experts in signal processing, speech  modeling, and text
analysis, have devoted decades of work to  improving the quality of synthetic
speech,"  said Joe Olive, head of  the Language Modeling Research Department at
Bell Labs.

"The applications for text-to-speech synthesis are various, and  growing, and
they include e-mail readers, voice-response systems, and automatic
order-verification systems, said Olive.  "Such systems will require the
high-quality word pronunciation and speech  intelligibility that Bell Labs TTS
systems deliver."

The Bell Labs TTS system converts written text to speech through  sophisticated
linguistic analysis, prosodic modeling, and speech  synthesis.  Representations
of language, typed on a users PC, are  enriched by phrasing information,
intonation and stress.  This  information is then generated by means of
sophisticated machine  synthesis into clearly articulated speech.
The Bell Labs TTS system handles not only English, but has expanded  its
language set to include French, Italian, German, Russian,  Japanese, Mandarin
and Taiwanese Chinese, Spanish (Peninsular and  Mexican), and Romanian.

SPEAKING ON THE WEB

Visitors to the Bell Labs Text-to-Speech Synthesis Web site at
http://www.bell-labs.com/project/tts/, can sample speech in up to  nine
different languages, as well as visit a demonstration area that  allows users
to synthesize English, German, and Mandarin Chinese  sentences using male,
female, and child intonations with effects such as raspiness.  The site offers
the experience of high-quality  interactive, on-the-fly modifications of voice
samples.

The Bell Labs TTS system even handles German noun compounds, which  are
notorious for being long and complex, and which cannot be  prestored in a
dictionary.

According to Jens Nagel, an engineer with Mannesmann Autocom in  Duesseldorf,
Germany, "the (Bell Labs TTS system) is currently the  qualitatively best TTS
engine for German, in terms of overall  intelligibility and especially the
pronunciation of names."

"Said Michael Tanenblatt, chief designer of the Web site, "the Bell  Labs TTS
Web site represents our strong feeling that TTS systems have started to play an
important role in everyday communications.  Users  can explore a range of fun,
intriguing applications on our site,  which will increase the understanding of
the role that TTS systems  play in bridging communications barriers."
Ongoing developments in the Bell Labs Multimedia Communication  Research
Laboratory include a "talking face"  which uses the Bell  Labs TTS system to
provide a visual personality to a computer.  These future developments will be
reflected on the Bell Labs TTS Web site.

"The average PC user has a new way to explore the future of speech  synthesis,
as reflected on the Bell Labs TTS site,"  said James  Flanagan, director of the
Center for Computer Aids for Industrial  Productivity, at Rutgers University, a
1996 National Medal of Science winner and a leading expert in speech
communications.  "I applaud the efforts of Bell Labs in providing such a
stunning resource for speech synthesis on the Web."
BELL LABS TTS SYSTEM: HOW IT WORKS
Currently, all Bell Labs systems for speech synthesis are  concatenative.  This
means that natural speech segments are selected  and stored in an acoustic
inventory.

These speech segments are units known as diphones, which contain  transitions
between adjacent phonetic segments.  The Bell Labs TTS  system determines and
selects elements of speech which minimize  discrepancies between adjacent
segments.  During synthesis, the TTS  system smoothly concatenates, or links,
the stored elements.

Lucent Technologies designs, builds and delivers a wide range of  public and
private networks, communications systems and software,  consumer and business
telephone systems and microelectronics  components.

Bell Labs is the research and development arm for the company.  It  is a
worldwide R&amp;D community of nearly 24,000 people.  About 20,000  of them work
in Lucents business units, developing products, systems  and technologies that
keep Lucent competitive in its markets.  About  4,000 Bell Labs people work in
central labs, pursuing research and  developing advanced technologies on behalf
of all the Lucent  operating units.

Lucent Technologies was formed as a result of AT&amp;Ts restructuring  and
became a fully independent company separate from AT&amp;T on  September 30,
1996.

BELL LABS TEXT-TO-SPEECH SYNTHESIS: THEN AND NOW

BELL LABS AND "TALKING MACHINES"

Bell Labs first demonstrated an electronic speech synthesis device,  the
"Voder," developed by H.W. Dudley, at the 1939 Worlds Fair.   The New York
Times declared, in describing the machines operation,  "My God, it talks."  This
early analog system was the forerunner of  Bell Labs work in articulatory
synthesis, conducted by Cecil Coker in the 1960s, and Joe Olives work on
concatenative synthesis in the  1970s.

BELL LABS: WHERE "HAL" FIRST SPOKE

One of the more famous moments in Bell Labs synthetic speech  research was the
sample created by John L. Kelly in 1962.  Kellys  vocoder synthesizer recreated
the song "Bicycle Built for Two"  on  the ILIAC, with musical accompaniment from
Max Mathews.  Arthur C.   Clarke, then visiting friend and colleague John Pierce
at the Bell  Labs Murray Hill facility, saw this remarkable demonstration and
later used it in the climactic scene of his novel and screenplay for  "2001: A
Space Odyssey,"  where the HAL9000 computer sings this song  as he is
Hdisassembled by astronaut Dave Bowman.

Joe Olive, recognized as the leading expert in text-to-speech  synthesis,
recently contributed a chapter, "The Talking Computer:  Text to Speech
Synthesis," to the book "HALs Legacy: 2001s Computer  as Dream and Reality,"
(M.I.T. Press, 1996), edited by David Stork.

LUCENT PRODUCTS AND THE BELL LABS TTS SYSTEM

The Bell Labs TTS system is currently used in the product offerings  of several
Lucent business units.  The Lucent Business Communications Systems Intuity
Conversant integrated voice and information  processing system uses TTS signal
processing cards for applications  that include, among others, an e-mail
reader.

Bell Labs TTS is also integrated in the Lucent Network Systems  Speech
Processing Solutions offers.  Here, TTS allows companies to  build applications
such as voice dialing, voice-activated response  systems, or reservations
centers using the AYC speech boards.

For information on availability of the PC version of Bell Labs TTS  system,
contact John Holmgren, business development manager, at  908-949-8864.   For
more information about Bell Labs TTS, call the Multimedia  Communications
Research Laboratory at 908-582-6435.  For more  information about Lucent Speech

   assistive device, please note that we have verified that this software
   is compatible with the following software, WinVision 97,
   WindowEyes, and JAWS 3.x.  (If you are using another software
   program, we may be able to assist you, please let us know.)
   
   System Requirements:
   
     * 486 or higher
     * Windows 3.1, Windows 95 or Windows NT
     * 8MB RAM or higher
     * 4MB hard disk space
       
   Installation
   
   To install, first select the appropriate link below based on the
   version of Windows you are currently using. Save the file to your
   local hard disk. Exit your Internet Browser. Run the file that you
   downloaded (fillweb.exe). The file will self-extract and begin the
   installation. Follow the installation instructions that appear on the
   screen. Once installation is complete, you may start the Filler from
   your Windows Desktop. For additional information regarding this
   program, please access our web site.
      Some of the features to look for on these forms:
     * WYSIWYG  look
     * Field Help
     * Forms can be printed to any LaserJet printer
     * Data entered on to the form can be saved and routed through any
       e-mail system
     * The variable data entered on the form and the static form itself
       are capable of being separated for greater flexibility
     * See our web site for more features that are
       available
   Additional Information
   If you are new to the idea of electronic forms, you may have other
   questions. You are certainly invited to contact us directly at (616)

   information to include on it, and I invite you to email me if you have
     any suggestions of links to include or suggestions that would make
    this page easier for you to use. I hope you enjoy using this site as
                much as I have enjoyed putting it together.
   In the future I plan to expand this site to include resources helpful
         to persons with other disabilities, so keep checking back.

http://www.zieglermag.org
   From their web site:
   Welcome to the World Wide Web site of the Matilda Ziegler Magazine for
   the Blind, a lively and entertaining monthly that reprints articles
   covering a wide range of interests from the foremost newspapers and
   periodicals. These articles cover health, travel, nature,
   personalities, history, science, music, sport--you name it! Editors at
   the Ziegler scan four national newspapers a day and over 30 magazines
   a month, selecting from them the articles that eventually will be
   reprinted in the Ziegler. The editors' reading list includes such
   popular periodicals as Time, Redbook, People, Parade, Esquire, Yankee
   and The Saturday Evening Post. Less well-known publications, such as
   New Age Journal, The Economist, Reminisce, Look Japan, Harvard Health
   Letter, The Compass and Insight, also are scanned to assure as broad a
   selection of articles as possible. The mix of articles gleaned from
   these newspapers and magazines makes sure the Ziegler always has
   something for everyone.
   
   In addition to articles, each issue contains "Readers Forum," where
   readers can "sound off," and "Special Notices," in which readers and
   organizations can announce goods or services they will sell, buy,
   exchange or give away. Each issue has a short story and a poem as well
   as names and addresses of readers seeking pen pals. The last component
   of each Ziegler is called "Bits and Pieces," and it contains short
   items that are humorous, startling or unusual.
   
   The Matilda Ziegler Magazine for the Blind circulates throughout the
   world and is published in two formats: Grade 2 braille and four-track,
   half-speed cassette. There is no print or diskette edition. The
   magazine was founded in New York in 1907 by Mrs. William Ziegler, and
   is maintained by her endowment for free distribution to legally blind
   people. To order a subscription, contact:
