The donation, facilitated by the @UCC_Official, through @NCPDug under the Uganda Communication Universal Service and Access Fund (UCUSAF) program, aims to transform the school into a premier regional hub for inclusive learning. The delivery included a wide array of specialized tools designed to enhance the educational experience for both deaf and visually impaired students: Braille embossers, Braille display focus units, Visualizers, and advanced devices like the Blaze ET and Sense Player for accessible media consumption for Visually Impaired Learners, High-quality hearing aids to facilitate better classroom engagement for Hearing Impaired Learners and 10 desktop computers and various peripheral equipment to bolster digital literacy. @LillianN60363, the Programs Manager at the National Council for Disability, emphasised that these tools are not just for the schoolโ€™s current students, but for the wider community. "Providing this equipment will help many students and people with visual and hearing impairments to come and learn and also get exposed to technology. Mbale School for the Deaf has the potential to be the best learning centre in Eastern Uganda." Namukasa further pledged to continue lobbying for the facility to ensure it eventually reaches international standards for special needs education. The Headteacher, Madam Akuku Esther, expressed her deep appreciation to the Council, noting that the equipment serves as a vital resource for the entire Eastern region. She extended specific thanks to Madam Sarah Bugosi, the Commissioner for Special Needs Education, for her steadfast support of the institution. The Headteacher called upon other organisations to follow the Councilโ€™s lead and support the centreโ€™s mission to serve the public effectively. This handover marks a milestone in regional education, ensuring that visual and hearing impairments no longer stand in the way of technological proficiency and academic success. @Moglsd_UG

Braille embossers transform written text into #Braille for menus, lesson plans, and other everyday materials. After the embosser prints the pages, Beth, Braille Production Manager at @PerkinsLibrary, runs them through a paper cutter to trim them to size and remove the sprockets.

Good initiative because most motorist need a heavy dose of education on road safety protocols. The level of indiscipline on our roads is just unacceptable. However, there must be a specific timeline after which strict enforcement of the laws kicks in. By the way, I would've thought the proper placement of plates on cars should be the work or plate embossers.

UPDATE: Minister of Public Works and Transport, Matjato Moteane says; โ€œA milestone was reached today. Contracts were signed with a total of 9 service providers, who shall actually produce the new 10 year duration number plates and sell them directly to the public. โ€œIn essence motorists will register their new vehicles and then approach any one of these service providers (embossers) to have a number plate made. You simply buy the embossed plate and get it within 10 minutes. โ€œCoupled with the fact that you will soon be able to do full online registration and re-registration you might never need to queue at our registration centres again. We aim to introduce fully automated system. The final caviar will come when the entire process is online and you will be to nominate where you want to collect the physical registration documents. The pick up points could be post office, retail shops, banks, etc.โ€
Lesotho's Minister of Public Works & Transport has signed a gazette officially extending the validity period of number plates. The new policy states that a car number plate will now be valid for 10 years before expiring, compared to the previous 5-year validity period.

Credit to the License Plate Association of South Africa (LAZA) for lodging the complaint. "LICENSE PLATE ASSOCIATION OF SOUTH AFRICA (LAZA) OFFICIAL PRESS STATEMENT: Date: 20 March 2026 LAZA WELCOMES COMPETITION COMMISSION REFERRAL OF NUMBER PLATE BLANKS CARTEL TO TRIBUNAL: The License Plate Association of South Africa (LAZA) welcomes the decisive action taken by the Competition Commission of South Africa in referring the alleged number plate blanks cartel case to the Competition Tribunal for prosecution. This development marks a critical and long-overdue milestone in addressing systemic anti-competitive conduct within the number plate manufacturing sector โ€” conduct which LAZA has consistently raised with regulators, lawmakers, and enforcement authorities over many years. The referral of Uniplate Group (Pty) Ltd, New Number Plate Requisites (Pty) Ltd, and Unique Number Plate (Pty) Ltd for alleged price-fixing and coordinated trading practices confirms the very concerns repeatedly brought forward by LAZA and its members. These practices have had a devastating impact on compliant embossers, artificially inflating input costs, restricting fair market participation, and undermining transformation within the industry. Impact on the Industry For over a decade, compliant embossers across South Africa have faced: Artificially inflated pricing structures for blank plates Restricted access to fair supply channels Unequal competitive conditions created by coordinated conduct Financial strain on SABS-compliant businesses, many of whom operate under strict regulatory costs LAZA believes that the dismantling of this cartel is not only necessary, but essential to restoring market integrity, affordability, and fair competition. Call for Strong Enforcement While LAZA welcomes this referral, we emphasize that this must be the beginning โ€” not the end โ€” of enforcement action. We call for: Swift adjudication by the Competition Tribunal Maximum penalties where contraventions are proven Further investigation into broader industry conduct, including supply chain abuses and misuse of regulatory marks Immediate regulatory reform aligned with updated SANS 1116 standards Protecting the Future of the Industry This case reinforces the urgent need for: A modernised, secure number plate system Transparent and competitive manufacturing frameworks Stronger enforcement at manufacturer level Alignment with South Africaโ€™s digital transformation and smart enforcement objectives LAZA remains committed to working with government, regulators, and industry stakeholders to build a fair, compliant, and future-ready number plate ecosystem. Conclusion The Commissionโ€™s action sends a clear message: Anti-competitive conduct will not be tolerated. LAZA stands ready to support all efforts that restore fairness, protect compliant operators, and ensure that the South African number plate industry operates with integrity and accountability. Issued by: Jan De Lange President โ€” License Plate Association of South Africa"

๐Ÿ“ฌ Mail Theft Investigation Update Back in November 2025, Milpitas police officers investigated a mailroom theft at the 1800-Block of S. Milpitas Blvd after two suspects were caught on surveillance cameras stealing numerous pieces of mail. Following up on surveillance footage and leads, detectives were able to identify one of the suspects, a 30-year-old male from San Francisco. Last Thursday, detectives served a warrant at the suspectโ€™s residence and located 3D printers, embossers, passports, more stolen mail and several other fraudulent documents. The suspect was arrested and booked into county jail for multiple felony theft-related charges. Detectives are continuing follow-up efforts to identify and locate the remaining suspect(s). ๐Ÿ‘ Great work by all the officers and detectives involved! And thank you to the community for providing valuable surveillance footage that assisted with the investigation! If you think you may be the victim of mail theft and havenโ€™t reported it yet, please contact the Milpitas Police Department at (408) 586-2400. Additionally, information can be given anonymously by calling the Crime Tip Hotline at (408) 586-2500. #MilpitasPD #BeMilpitasPD #MilpitasCA

Members of the Vehicle Embossment Association of Ghana (VEMAG) appeared before the Accra High Court seeking an injunction against the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) to halt the rollout of the new digital number plates. They allege that the government awarded the contract to a single entity without following procurement laws, a move they say sidelines local embossers and puts thousands of jobs at risk.

Looks like $2k can get you conputerized embossers that do 30-40 characters a second. Not fast. But probably faster than anything else you'll have at home. Definitely would NOT produce cheap books if you wanted to know go deep in the hole. But doable in 2025.

It CAN be done, but I've only seen it used in schools. Also, when I utilized embossers (this was 10 years ago) they were quite slow & loud. I imagine nowadays they're much quieter & faster, though assistive tech innovation is notorious for being incredibly slow.
