Subject: Communication # 15: Passenger Screening Canines

Good Afternoon Coalition Members -
The Transportation Security Administration Disability Branch would like to
share the following information with you regarding Passenger Screening
Canines.  Please feel free to share it with others.

The Transportation Security Administration Disability Program and the
National Explosives Detection Canine Team Program appreciates you contacting
us, and affording us the opportunity to respond to your inquiry regarding
Passenger Screening Canines and their interaction with service animals. Our
canine handlers are well aware of the sensitivities involved while working
around other animals (such as dogs and cats) as well as people that are
generally afraid of dogs. A great amount of time is spent instructing the
handlers on the importance of maintaining control of their assigned canine
at all times.
When Passenger Screening Canine teams are working in the public queue line
area, interaction with service animals should not be an issue because the
screening canines and their handlers continuously undergo extensive training
to ensure control of the canine in the context of the work they do.
Additionally, the Passenger Screening Canine teams are highly-trained to
maintain situational awareness at all times.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you.

http://citizensvoice.com/news/highly-contagious-dog-flu-seen-in-region-1.173
7284

MCT FILE A dog is comforted by a veterinarian at the Animal Care Center in
Chicago last month. Local veterinarians are cautioning dog owners about a
highly contagious canine influenza seen in the region.

 

Your dog just came from the kennel or a dog show, bringing home a cough,
runny nose or even a fever.

 

It could be simple kennel cough, a catch-all name for bacterial and viral
upper respiratory infections in canines.

 

But it could also be canine influenza, a relatively new illness caused by a
virus closely related to an influenza that affects horses.

 

A recent spate of local cases has veterinarians talking about the disease
and how to help dog owners.

 

Dionne Ferguson, DVM, DACVIM, practices at Veterinary Referral and Emergency
Center in South Abington Township While the center has seen no confirmed
cases, they have received calls from referring veterinarians noting a recent
increase, she said.

 

"The biggest concern is that it is a new virus - pretty much no dogs have
antibodies," Ferguson said.

 

In January 2004, 22 racing greyhounds at a Florida racetrack developed a
fever and cough, according to a 2005 paper in the peer-reviewed journal
Science. Fourteen of those dogs began recovering after 10 to 14 days, but
eight died from hemorrhages in the respiratory tract.

 

Scientists compared the virus's DNA with other influenza viruses affecting
pigs, birds and humans. The closest match was the H3N8 equine influenza
virus, meaning the virus likely jumped from horses to canines.

 

>From June to August that year, disease outbreaks spread to 14 race tracks in
Florida, Texas, Alabama, Arkansas, West Virginia and Kansas. In 2005, the
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified it as a "newly
emerging pathogen in the dog population."

 

Because the virus is only a decade old in dogs, mothers don't pass down
antibodies to their pups, Ferguson said. Around 80 to 90 percent of those
exposed will contract the virus, even if they don't show symptoms, she said.

 

"It's similar to flu in people where it's the very young and the old that
are most severely affected," she said.

 

About 5 percent of dogs who get sick will develop severe symptoms, which can
include pneumonia, said Doug Ayers, VMD, who practices at Northeast
Veterinary Referral Hospital in Plains Township.

 

A kennel in New York recently brought a van full of six sick dogs to the
hospital, he said. One had already died. Suspecting canine influenza, the
hospital did not even let the dogs out of the van, he said.

 

Instead, they directed them to the Animal Health Diagnostic Center at
Cornell University, where the first isolation of the virus was done in
cooperation with the University of Florida.

 

This "high morbidity, low mortality" virus "probably is popping up more than
we know," Ayers said.

 

"It's extremely contagious," he said. "Dogs at risk are dogs that are going
to be exposed to places where there are many animals."

 

A vaccine is available, but as with the human influenza vaccine, it's not

100 percent effective at preventing infection, Ferguson said.

 

Though they have not typically pushed vaccines, Northeast Veterinary
Referral Hospital recently sent a fax around to local veterinary clinics "to
at least start warning people that maybe it's reasonable for those with a
high exposure level to be vaccinated," Ayers said.

A Special Invitation, from Audrey Gunter (President of Dixie Land Guide Dog
Users, Inc.) and Guide Dog, Jessie (Executive Director for the President.)

You are invited to.

Come, exercise your senses!  Come, experience beautiful, historic
Charleston, South Carolina and find out for yourself why we were named the
"friendliest city in America!"  Feel the relaxed, laid-back spirit of our
"Geechies" as you are met at the airport or at the hotel.  Hear that
distinctive, whimsical yet oh, so melodic dialect of our native
Charlestonians.  Listen to the beautiful music that is indigenous only to
Charleston, S.C.  Wrap your lips around some of those delicious, "slap your
mama good" culinary delights that are associated only with our culture.
Taste some of those mouth-watering, lip-licking, tongue-tickling lowcountry
dishes that you've heard so much about.  Let those olfactory senses inhale
the salt-water and tantalizing aromas as our chef prepares our evening
meals.  

 

  Come!  Feel!  Hear!  Taste!  Smell!  Experience Charleston at our TOP
DOG-CHARLESTON "Funvention" to be held January 30 - February 1, 2015 at the
newly constructed, beautifully appointed Comfort Inn and Suites West Ashley!

Whether you are blind or sighted; use a guide dog, sighted guide or long,
white cane YOU are invited.  If you are a puppy raiser, You are invited!  If
you are familiar with accessible technology or if you know someone who is or
if you want to know more about it, Come!  If you enjoy seeing old friends
and meeting new ones, come!  If you want to just enjoy a wonderful weekend
in sunny Charleston, South Carolina, come!  If you like dogs and want  to
know more about  them, come!

Dixie Land Guide Dog Users, Georgia Guide Dog Users and Guide Dog Users of
Florida proudly invite YOU to attend our Top Dog Charleston-2015
"Funvention" at the Comfort Inn & Suites (Savannah Highway), West Ashley,
Charleston, SC beginning Friday, January 30 through Sunday, February 1,
2015. We'll greet you with a big "welcome home" hug at the airport and
return you Sunday with a "so long" kiss!

We'll begin on Friday morning with an "Early Bird" optional Paws 4
Technology", where Kimberly Taylor and her guide, Abby,  (Association for
the Blind and Visually Impaired) and Dixie Land's very own 2nd V.P., Brianna
Murray and her guide, Lacey will introduce us to the iPhone and iPad.   The
lucky winner of our "Early Bird Door Prize" will win a fantastic  carriage
ride through the historic streets of downtown Charleston, generously
provided by the nice folks of "Charleston Carriage Tours."

Be sure to check out the great stuff offered in our Exhibit Hall!  We've
already gotten at least 6 guide dog schools  committed, a Chocolatier, a
technology firm, a couple of jewelry representatives and a master
woodcrafter ready to show you what they've got.  If you'd like a table in
our Exhibit Hall, please get your request in early.  The Exhibit Hall will
be open all day Friday and Saturday and the general public will be invited
to visit it.

Our event will officially begin Friday evening with "Paws 2 Recognize",
featuring Pastor Ed Grant (Calvary Lutheran Church) and the brave veterans
from the VFW, followed by our Yappy Time!  Bring your appetite 'cuz Jaimie
Westendorff (Charleston Outdoor Caterers) is going to cook up some of that
delicious "Frogmore Stew" that he's so famous for.  Now, don't you worry!
No frogs are injured in the preparation of this delightful lowcountry dish.
In fact, it was originated in Frogmore, S.C. and contains giant shrimp;
sausage; corn on the cob and potatoes.  For those who can't or don't eat
seafood, we'll have that good ol' southern fried chicken and, of course, all
the fixin's.

Our programs on Saturday start off with "The Blessing", featuring Music by
Laurel Jean  with a couple of special pastors to officiate.  This year we're
going to do a uniquely different tribute to our retired guides and a very
special service for those having crossed Rainbow Bridge.  Pack lots of
tissues.

Dr. Ruth Roberts (Sun Dog Cat Moon) will return to tell us how we can help
keep our guides healthy and San LeBeauf is going to talk to us about having
to make final arrangements when our beloved guides cross "Rainbow Bridge."

Puppy Raisers!  Puppy Raisers!  Puppy Raisers!  We all love puppy raisers
and we're going to have a group of them present to conduct an interactive
discussion  where they tell us some of their favorite stories about the dogs
they've raised.

Our final program will be "Paws 4 Updates" where a panel of distinguished
guests tell us about the latest developments with airport in-house relief
areas and fake service dogs.

After a nice boxed lunch join us outside for an exciting motorcycle ride (in
a side car) or an exhilarating  tandem bike ride with the Charleston Flyers.
If you're really up for a challenge, try your skills in our obstacle course.
The 4 legged finishers will get a Frosty Paw and their handlers, an ice
cream.

By the time dinner time comes around you'll be so hungry your hair will
hurt; but don't worry  'cuz Jaimie will be back with his world-famous all
you can eat barbecued pork and chicken!  You should have just enough time to
swallow that last mouth-watering bite just before the renown Ann Caldwell
and the Magnolia Singers take the stage!  Hold onto your hats 'cuz you ain't
never experienced anything like them!  You're sure to be up on your feet and
shakin' your whatevers!

How much does all this cost?  Well, can you believe registration is only $55
per person and includes a professionally done photo (Heidi Richie)  of you
and your guide ;  all meals; entertainment and a lovely bright blue t-shirt
boasting a guide dog in harness and a matching bandana for your guide?  

 

The nice folks at the Comfort Inn & Suites are offering us an unbelievable
nightly rate of only $89.99 and each of their suites can accommodate up to 6
people.  Of course, a tasty hot breakfast is included. They've even agreed
to honor that price for the entire week for those of us who want to come

Fellow Federationists:
 
The National Federation of the Blind is actively seeking individuals who are
currently competitively employed, but who have worked in sheltered
subminimum wage work environments in the past.  If this has been your
experience, we would greatly appreciate it if you would answer the following
questions:  
 
.                    What type of work did you perform for subminimum wages?
 
.                    What type of work do you do now?
 
.                    Is it competitive? 
 
.                    Do you earn the federal minimum wage or more?
 
.                    What has changed in your life since you started earning
the minimum wage or more? 
 
.                    What is your opinion of the Presidential Executive
Order to raise the minimum wage for federal service contract employees to
$10.10 per hour?
 
.                    Would you be willing to speak to a reporter about your
experience?
 
Please send your responses, along with your contact information, to
cdanielsen at nfb.org as soon as possible. You may also respond by telephone by
calling (410) 659-9314, extension 2330.

Announcing KNFB Reader for iOS Release Plan

Waltham, MA (August 29, 2014): Responding to worldwide inquiries, K-NFB
Reading Technology and Sensotec have announced today that the release of the
KNFB Reader iPhone app is being scheduled to coordinate with Apple's upgrade
to its new iOS 8 operating system, expected to occur on or about September
10, 2014.

Commenting on this decision, K-NFB's Vice President of Business Development,
James Gashel said: "All of us at K-NFB and Sensotec are truly gratified with
the worldwide interest expressed in the KNFB Reader iOS app. The app has
been built for use with iPhone 5 or above, and running iOS 7 or higher. Our
plan to coordinate its release with iOS 8 will best assure that the app
works as intended for all users without any interruption or possible need to
uninstall and upgrade due to Apple's newest operating system release."

The KNFB Reader iOS app was first announced and demonstrated during the 2014
convention of the National Federation of the Blind in the United States.
Since that time excitement about the life-changing potential of this app has
been building as word of its release has spread around the world. Designed
to be fast, accurate, and efficient, the KNFB Reader iPhone app allows
anyone to snap a picture of printed text, in several languages, and quickly
have the words read aloud. The first release will initially support read
aloud in 11 languages, with more to come. The app has been designed to
particularly benefit blind, visually impaired, and print disabled users.

Documents can be saved, stored, and shared with others as well.  More
information about the KNFB Reader for iOS app is available at
http://www.knfbreader.com, with links to video and audio presentations,
description of features, and more. Please visit the website for progress
announcements as the days tick down to release of both iOS 8 and the KNFB
Reader iOS app, and sign up for our email notifications as well.
