[nabs-l] NFB Online Streaming Problems

Thu Jul 3 18:07:21 UTC 2014

For whatever it's worth, there was a presentation on the KNFB Reader iOS
app. One of the documents they demonstrated appeared to be a notice from the
hotel apologizing for wi-fi infrastructure issues, so it may very well be a
hotel problem. I'm just saying the eradic behavior may have nothing to do
with the organization's audio engineers.

Big thanks to David last night for streaming what he could via his phone. I
was bummed that it ended before the infamous election. Does anyone know who
wound up winning what positions? I've never known Dr. Maurer to express such
a blatant interest in student government. But, if the general elections can
be predetermined... LOL I kid I kid.

Hello Elizabeth and everyone,

    And promote the notion that one must create life-time sources of income
not just one to last them 40 or 50 years if that; a job. The more blind
entrepreneurs we have in the NFB the better our chances of increased
employment among the blind and obtaining the financial resources to invest
in improving our capability to host Internet broadcasts.
