***Announcement Start***


Greetings!

We wish to announce the launch of NFB Live, a  voice chat site hosted 
by the National Federation of the Blind of New York.  Our grand 
opening will be on Saturday August 30.  The day's activities as of 
now include games, door prizes, and a series of special guests and 
venders.  The day will start at 2:00 PM Eastern with Carl Jacobsen, 
from the NFB of New York introducing two distinguished guest 
speakers, Mister Mark Riccobono, President of the National Federation 
of the Blind, and Doctor Marc Maurer, immediate past 
president.  Throughout the day, we will have a series of 
presentations by several speakers and venders.  At present, we are 
proud to have Art Schreiber who will discuss his experiences as one 
of two American reporters who travelled with the Beatles during their 
1964 US/Canadian tour, and James Gashel who will discuss the KNFB 
Reader for iPhones, . We are happy to also have Dan Parker, blind 
motorcycle driver, who will tell us about his adventures driving in 
the Bonneville Salt Flats.

J.J. Meddaugh from the A T Guys will offer a presentation on his 
organization's products, and James Boehm from Kustomcane, will inform 
us about his  unique line of canes and accessories. We also will talk 
with Gail Smith about Braille greeting cards.  We'll end the night 
with a few games.
