Dear Prospective Reviewer,

 

This letter is an invitation for you to participate in the peer review process of the paper titled "IMPACT OF VACCINATION OF DOGS AGAINEST RABIES ON THE PREVENTION OF HUMAN, LIVESTOCK AND DOGS IN SOME VACCINATED KEBELES OF BALE ZONE".

 

The publication of this paper therefore is dependent on the volunteer efforts of reviewers such as you contributing your knowledge and time.

 

 

This is the Abstract

 

The study was conducted from November 2008 to April 2009 in south east of Oromia region particularly in Bale zone by comparing the prevalence and community awareness about rabies in vaccinated and unvaccinated PA. The study Employed questionnaire survey and retrospective study in Human, Cattle, Sheep, Equine and Dogs from randomly selected 720 family holders in four PA. Data collected from community, EWCP vaccination data base and Agricultural office. Depending on questionnaire survey result  rabies positive cases in vaccinated and unvaccinated PA for the last year were  0( 0%) and 20 ( 11.11%) in human, 4 (2.859%)and 48 (12.18% ) in cattle, 3 (0.7% )and 7 (3.3%) in sheep, 2 (0.903%) and 13 (8.45%) in equine, 7 (4.678%) and 60 (34.664% ) in dogs  respectively. In this current study the knowledge of the community about vaccination of dogs against rabies were evaluated, they can  easily differentiate the disease by salivation, tuckling of tail, hydrophobia and biting, however killing, slaughtering, and post exposure vaccination are the common control method applied in the community. Some of community responded that the disease occur seasonally. Based on retrospective study 98% of the community from vaccinated PA have good idea to rabies vaccine and volunteer to vaccinate their dogs but 2% community consider the vaccine makes their dogs lazy, infertile, disable to barking and lack of care to their pups. Generally the prevalence of rabies as greatly varied between vaccinated and unvaccinated areas and the community have good awareness about rabies and vaccination.

 

Key words: Prevalence, rabies case, vaccination

 

 

We would appreciate if you can help with reviewing the above mentioned manuscript within 10 days.

arbcombo -- Materials Posted for January 23 Public Workshop on FY 2015-16 AQIP and Low Carbon Transportation Funding Plan

Air Resources Board staff has posted handouts for discussion at
the January 23, 2015 public workshop on the development of the
Fiscal Year (FY) 2015-16 Funding Plan for the Air Quality
Improvement Program (AQIP) and Low Carbon Transportation
Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) Investments. These handouts
can be found at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/meetings/meetings.htm. The
workshop presentation will be posted the morning of the workshop.

The workshop will be held at the following time and place:

Date: Friday, January 23, 2015
Time: 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Place: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building
Coastal Hearing Room, 2nd Floor
1001 I Street
Sacramento, California 95814

This workshop will also be webcast for participants unable to
attend in person. The webcast can be accessed on the day of the
workshop at http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/

For more information about the AQIP and ARB's Low Carbon
Transportation Investments, please go to:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/aqip.htm.

If you have questions regarding the workshop, please contact
Andrew Panson at (916) 323-2809 or andrew.panson@arb.ca.gov.

Background: AQIP is a voluntary mobile source incentive program
administered by ARB providing about $25 million per year through
2023. ARB focuses AQIP investments on technology advancing
projects that support California's long-term air quality and
climate change goals in addition to providing immediate emission
benefits. Each year, the Board approves the AQIP Funding Plan,
which serves as the blueprint for expending AQIP funds.

Cap-and-Trade auction proceeds provide an additional funding
source for ARB's advanced technology clean transportation
incentive programs, expanding the types of projects ARB has
funded through AQIP. The Governor's proposed budget for FY
2015-16 would appropriate $200 million from GGRF to ARB for Low
Carbon Transportation projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
with an emphasis on low carbon freight and passenger
transportation investments that benefit disadvantaged
communities.

ARB staff is developing a joint Funding Plan for the AQIP and
GGRF funding sources for the FY 2015-16 funding cycle. ARB staff
anticipates releasing the proposed FY 2015-16 Funding Plan in May
2015 with Board consideration in June 2015.

arbcombo -- ARB Research Seminar: The CoolCalifornia City Challenge: A Statewide Program to Enable Low Carbon Communities (WEBCAST)

"The CoolCalifornia City Challenge: A Statewide Program to Enable
Low Carbon Communities".

"Presentations are available for downloading!"

Daniel M. Kammen, Ph.D., and Chris M. Jones, Ph.D.
University of California, Berkeley
http://www.arb.ca.gov/research/seminars/kammen2/kammen2.htm

Thursday, January 8, 2015 1:30 pm, PST (WEBCAST)
Coastal Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building
1001 I Street, Sacramento, California

This presentation will highlight the programmatic development and
research findings of the CoolCalifornia City Challenge ("The
Challenge"), a statewide competition among California cities to
motivate residents to reduce household carbon footprints and
build more vibrant, sustainable communities. The Challenge uses
techniques common to behavior incentivized programs, including
comparative feedback, local messengers, social networks, goal
setting, persuasive messaging, incentives, and competition to
recruit and motivate participants. Participants earn points for
engagement with the program, such as tracking household energy
consumption and motor vehicle emissions, inviting friends to
join, uploading stories, completing a research survey, and for
actually reducing their carbon footprint by lowering emissions
from household energy use and vehicle travel. Every point earned
by households counts toward their city's ranking on the statewide
scoreboard. At the end of the program (which lasted one year in
2013 and six months in 2014) the city with the most points is
named "Coolest California City" by the California Air Resources
Board. The two runners up are each named "Cool California City."
The Challenge is sponsored by Energy Upgrade California, which
last year distributed $100,000 among cities based on the level of
participation by residents in each community. For more go to the
