"The Ultimate Section 508 Guide for Students In 1973, the United States government passed a sweeping piece of legislation known as the United States Workforce Rehabilitation Act. Intended to aid those with disabilities, this legislation provides funding for ...vocational rehabilitation, supported employment, independent living, and client assistance (and) authorizes a variety of training and service discretionary grants administered by the Rehabilitation Services Administration. As technology advanced, and both the workplace and society as a whole underwent significant changes, the need of those with disabilities also evolved. In order to foster equal access to the Internet and related technologies for all, the government added Section 508 to the Workforce Rehabilitation Act in 1998. What is Section 508? As amended by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-220), Section 508 ...requires federal agencies to develop, procure, maintain and use electronic and information technology (EIT) that is accessible to people with disabilities - regardless of whether or not they work for the federal government. In short, federal law requires government agencies to create and use electronic devices, and content developed to be used with them (e.g., websites, media files, etc.), that people with disabilities can readily access. "

Questa guida è scritta in lingua molto semplice e illustrata da video, mentre la sezione 508 dell'ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act, un po' come la legge Stanca in Italia) in legalese originale è più difficile da capire.

"We now require captcha on many social features, such as following people, joining groups, etc. For a very nominal fee, you can upgrade yourself to "Social Membership," which would grant you full social features without capcha, plus a lot of other goodies. We expect to stop the vast majority of the spammers with this simple measure. We'd like to elaborate more about Social Membership and its pricing and our thoughts behind the decisions. As long-time Diigo users know, Diigo is a personal knowledge management tool on the one hand, and a knowledge-sharing community on the other hand. While it is perfectly fine to use Diigo solely as the former, we do believe that the value of the knowledge-sharing community could be substantial, as the number of active users increases, and as the spam is minimized. As a result, we have decided to set the social membership annual fee at $5/year on Oct 1, 2014, and will increase the price gradually thereafter according to a pre-determined formula, as the number of active social members increases. To reward existing users, an attractive promotion price of $2/year will be available until Oct. 1, 2014. For future years, you will continue to pay the low annual price you paid in the first year, as long as your credit card stay valid for automatic renewal. We have also taken this opportunity to re-adjust our pricing plan to better align users needs with our business model. Existing basic and premium users will be automatically upgraded to Standard in the new pricing plan."

Attenzione a quel "new pricing plan" https://www.diigo.com/premium che limita drasticamente il numero dei gruppi per le formule meno care, ma non è chiaro cosa succederà ai gruppi creati con formula gratuita.

Strumento semplice per aggiungere una pista audio doppiata a un video, a quanto ho capito (non l'ho ancora provato)

"Published on Nov 28, 2014 For someone who has no idea how to caption a video this might be a bit confusing. I'm not sure. (Ask otherwise). But I thought I'll upload it anyway. (What I could have explained in the video is that numer 5-7 are how to make captions that are IN youtube, which aren't permanently on the screen. And you press a button in the bottom right corner of the video to turn them on. But I kind of assumed that everyone knew that when making the video. However having shown this to my confused little brother I realize that's not always the case). (OR just watch Paul Talks video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_H57r... ) 1. Handheld written captions. 2. Scanned written text. 3. Text added when editing. 4. "Upload a file" 5. Write a script. 6. Write new captions as you're watching the video. 7. Automatic Captions.

Filmed Feb 2008 * Posted Nov 2008 * TED2008 "Biochemist Gregory Petsko makes a convincing argument that, in the next 50 years, we'll see an epidemic of neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer's, as the world population ages. His solution: more research into the brain and its functions. Gregory Petsko is a biochemist who studies the proteins of the body and their biochemical function. Working with Dagmar Ringe, he's doing pioneering work in the way we look at proteins and what they do."

Biochemistry is complicated. I've been assigned a paper on a topic I don't understand at all. How can I implement it without knowledge?

At the end of that year, I needed to prepare a report on biochemistry. Need I say that I understood nothing about it? I found this website to help me with it. The team completed my task on time and did it very well. In addition, their prices are quite reasonable. So I think that they will be able to help you.

Political gatherings have been banned in two Pakistani provinces and many activists arrested to prevent them joining a planned protest march. Opposition supporters and lawyers had organised what they are calling a "long march" against the government due to start later this week. Activists, lawyers and ordinary citizens have reacted to the latest developments with a mixture of defiance and fear.
