Louis Braille’s
4 January 1809 – 6 January 1852) was the inventor of braille, a system of reading and writing used by people who are blind or visually impaired. As a small child, Braille was blinded in an accident; as a boy he developed a mastery over that blindness; and as a young man – still a student at school – he created a revolutionary form of communication that transcended blindness and transformed the lives of millions of persons. Almost two centuries later, the braille system remains an invaluable tool of learning and communication for the blind, and it has been adapted for languages worldwide.
Braille was determined to fashion a system of reading and writing that could bridge the critical gap in communication between the sighted and the blind. In his own words: "Access to communication in the widest sense is access to knowledge, and that is vitally important for us if we [the blind] are not to go on being despised or patronized by condescending sighted people. We do not need pity, nor do we need to be reminded we are vulnerable. We must be treated as equals – and communication is the way this can be brought about.
Braille worked tirelessly on his ideas, and his system was largely completed by 1824, when he was just fifteen years of age. From Barbier's night writing, he innovated by simplifying its form and maximizing its efficiency. He made uniform columns for each letter, and he reduced the twelve raised dots to six. He published his system in 1829, and by the second edition in 1837 had discarded the dashes because they were too difficult to read. Crucially, Braille's smaller cells were capable of being recognized as letters with a single touch of a finger.
Braille created his own raised-dot system by using an awl, the same kind of implement which had blinded him. In the process of designing his system, he also designed an ergonomic interface for using it, based on Barbier's own slate and stylus tools: by soldering two thin bars across the slate, he created a secure area for the stylus which would keep the lines straight and readable. By these modest means, Braille constructed a robust communication system: "it bears the stamp of genius" wrote Dr. Richard Slating French, former director of the California School for the Blind, "like the Roman alphabet itself
Although Braille was admired and respected by his pupils, his writing system was not taught at the Institute during his lifetime. The successors of Valentin Haüy, who had died in 1822, showed no interest in altering the established methods of the school, and indeed, they were actively hostile to its use. Dr. Alexandre François-René Pignier, headmaster at the school, was dismissed from his post after he had a history book translated into braille.
Braille had always been a sickly child, and his condition worsened in adulthood. A persistent respiratory illness, long believed to be tuberculosis, dogged him, and by the age of forty, he was forced to relinquish his position as a teacher. When his condition reached mortal danger, he was taken back to his family home in Coupvray, where he died in 1852, two days after he had reached the age of forty-three.

E-BILLER FEE RECEIPT/TRANSACTION ID PROBLEM
E-BILLER FEE RECEIPT/TRANSACTION ID PROBLEM
Some times System Administrators are in fix, when customer (who have deposited their fees e.g. CBSE, AIPMT etc. in e-Post Office) ask for Transaction ID in lieu or complains that Receipt No. Printed on MPCM Receipt is shown as Invalid or Not accepted by E-Biller’s software on Website.
It repeatedly shows the error “Please Enter your Transaction ID” while they are taking Final Confirmation Print of their Application. Concerned SPM is being pressed to execute e-Payment client, repeatedly, but in vain. This not only a tough time for System Administrator & PM/SPM but also a huge Loss of Revenue to our Department as Private Shopkeepers/Typists incourage applicants to deposit their Fees in Banks only, because Banks provides Transaction ID as per the formate of E-Biller.
The Simple Solution is :................
If E-Biller Website asks, Transaction ID of Nine digits and Our MPCP Receipt No. is 2, then Fill the Column as 000000002 (Put eight 0s before 2 to complete Nine Digits) if Transaction ID is of 13 digits then Fill the Column as 0000000000002 (Put twelve 0s before 2 to complete 13 digits).
Use it & Share it...........in the Interest of Our Organisation.
