Most Popular Recent DealsBlind Individuals With Recurrent Sleep Problems Needed for Research Study. Individuals who are totally blind with recurrent sleep or napping problems are needed for a survey and/or clinical study. For each completed survey, a donation of $25 will be made to organizations that support people with blindness. Participants in a clinical study will be compensated for their time and effort and will receive study medication, study-related medical evaluation and transportation at no cost. Sleep problems and napping occur in some individuals who are totally blind. This can be caused by the lack of light needed to reset the “body clock”. The result is recurrent sleep problems similar to jet lag. Individuals may qualify for the survey or the clinical study if they: • are between 18 and 75 years of age • are totally blind • have recurrent trouble sleeping at night or experience daytime sleepiness or napping If you are interested Call toll free 1-888-389-7033 from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM M-F ET or email info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 1. Editorial: Learning Ally: What's in a Name? As we previously reported, Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic recently changed their name to Learning Ally, prompting much discussion in the blind community. As a follow-up, we present an editorial from Bill Meeker, who gives some insight on the change. His comments are printed below with his permission. 2. EyeNote Gives Another Currency Identification Option for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch The United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing has released a free currency identification app for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad 2 called EyeNote. It identifies modern U.S. currency by taking a picture using the phone's camera and also offers vibratory feedback for deaf-blind users. By comparison, LookTel uses the phone's video camera leading to faster identification. The app is free and available now. 3.

Contact: richcav1014@xxxxxxxxx Lightly Used Blazie Braille Embosser for $300 This is a seldom-used embosser in very good physical and working condition. I received it in high school and used it for the last couple of years for homework assignments. I tested it thoroughly and the braille output looks as crisp as it did when I received it back in ’95 or so. The revision is July 31, 1995. The only material which came with the printer still in my possession is the parallel cable. Payments can be made via PayPal. Thank you for your interest.
