Parental fears of losing a child to drugs used to be associated with images of syringes and back alley dealers.
Yet the clearest path to tragedy for teenagers has become the innocuously packaged pills that can be found in so many suburban bathrooms and dresser drawers.
"Teens may be getting it from the medicine cabinets of family and friends, but the way those family and friends get it affect whether it's in the medicine cabinet at all," said Elizabeth Hudgins, executive director of the N.C. Child Fatality Task Force. "It's such a growing problem, we need to make sure we're addressing all the different aspects of it."
North Carolina's child death rate remained at the lowest level on record in 2011, and has declined 46 percent since 1991. But the improvement seen in recent years has been tempered by an alarming, negative trend.
While most causes of child death are declining, deaths due to poisoning are increasing, driven by teenage misuse of prescription drugs. That's consistent with national trends across all age groups, Hudgins said.
The N.C. Child Fatality Task Force has been the driving force behind the decline of the child death rate in the last 21 years. But its leaders are concerned that the ongoing rise in poisoning deaths could soon reverse the trend.
The task force released an annual report this month that recommends budgetary needs and policy changes for state legislators to consider in 2013. It includes a wide array of suggestions for stemming the tide of poisonings and overdoses that lead to child fatality.
"We're very concerned about finding a way to curb that," Hudgins said.
Managing chronic pain
Many people who have trouble with opioid abuse also have legitimate needs for pain control due to various ailments. To enhance pain control while preventing injury and death, local leaders in the health care and prescription drug fields have launched the Chronic Pain Initiative.
The aim is to reduce opioid-related overdoses, manage substance abuse issues affiliated with opioid misuse and abuse, and optimize treatment of chronic pain.
Last spring, the idea brought together a coalition of people who have a stake in lowering the overdose rate. It included hospital and physician groups, pharmacies, civic organizations, law enforcement agencies, churches, schools and many others.
Alison Champion, a registered nurse who helps coordinate participation in the Chronic Pain Initiative and works for Community Health Partners in Gastonia, said it has still been trying to get off the ground since then.
"It has slowed down some," she said of the program's progress. "We've been waiting on some grant money to come through, but we heard it came through this month, so hopefully that will help."
Uphill battle
Becky Jones is a manager and social worker with the child and outpatient unit at Phoenix Counseling Center in Gastonia, which provides substance abuse services. She's also co-chairwoman of the Child Fatality Task Force in Gaston County.
Jones said many of the task force's efforts in addressing child fatalities go hand in hand with the goals of the Chronic Pain Coalition. But she acknowledged it's been an uphill battle to get people talking about the problem.
"It's a commitment of time, and getting people from these cross sections together is difficult," she said.
Jones sees a "considerable amount" of prescription drug abuse and addiction in her work. The problem is often that adults don't understand the risks prescription drugs can pose – for themselves and also their children.
"In terms of society, I think a lot of people have the misconception that, 'Dr. So and So prescribed this for me, so it's not a problem,'" she said. "I think people often don't realize the prescription drug issue is every bit as, or more concerning than, other drug issues."
Plan of action
One tactic the Child Fatality Task Force has used to take unneeded prescription medication out of the equation is drug take-back events. A community will typically set aside a day and time when residents can clear old prescription drugs out of their medicine cabinets and hand it in to police.
"Those drug take-back programs are one of the ways we can prevent teens from getting access to prescription drugs," said Hudgins. "Those have allowed us to collect more than 10 million doses of prescription medicine in the last few years in North Carolina."
The state task force's action agenda includes some budgetary requests, such as restoring $575,000 in funding for the Carolinas Poison Center in Charlotte. But it largely suggests policy changes. One request is to strengthen the Controlled Substances Reporting System by requiring that physician-dispensed medications be reported into that database every 24 hours, rather than once a week.
That would allow law enforcement and medical professionals to more quickly respond to poisonings and uncover red flags that caused them, Hudgins said.
"All of these pieces work together," she said.
Jones said the overall problem of prescription drug abuse, particularly as it results to child fatalities, isn't going away.
"There's a lot of work left to be done," she said.

Gaston high in overdose rates
- North Carolina has one of the highest overdose rates in the country, and nearly all of those deaths stem from the abuse of prescription opioid pain relievers, such as methadone and oxycodone.
- Gaston County is one of the leading contributors to the statistic. In 2011 – the most recent time from which statistics are available – it ranked sixth among counties with the most unintentional and undetermined overdose deaths in the state. Gaston's total of 39 overdose deaths put it behind only Mecklenburg, Wake, Forsyth, Guilford and Cumberland counties.
- Per capita, Gaston is no better off. In 2010, its rate of overdose deaths was 21.8 per 100,000 people — more than twice the state rate of 10.4 deaths per 100,000 residents. That was the 15th highest rate in the state, a slight improvement from the year before.
- The trend is also not new. Gaston's overdose fatalities rose 42 percent in the past decade.

In 1971, Congress declared our wild horses and burros an integral part of our public rangelands and ordered the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to care for them as cultural icons. Over the years, the BLM has rounded up tens of thousands of our wild equines, often with cruel methods, and shipped them to tax-funded holding facilities where they are confined for the rest of their lives.
The BLM is again looking to apply the same failed model of round-ups and removals in revised management plans for wild horses out West. These plans must be altered.
If adopted, these management plans would decimate the wild horse population in the Wyoming Checkerboard, a two-million-acre mix of public and private land where nearly half of Wyoming's wild horses live. This is certainly not the free-roaming vision Congress set out for these majestic animals.
The good news is that you can help! The BLM is accepting public comments through Friday, September 27, on the potentially devastating revisions to Resource Management Plans that will cull wild horses in Wyoming.
Please be a voice for our wild horses before their time runs out. Visit the ASPCA Advocacy Center right now to quickly contact the BLM. Urge the agency to adopt policies that give horses their fair share of habitat and keep them on the range where they belong.
On behalf of the horses, we thank you!
When are these power hungry "officials" going to learn that everything has the right to live including the horses!! What is the matter w/people that they just want to kill everything in sight; the wolves, the horses, the seals, the whales, the trees. Where does it all end? What will be left for humans once we completely destroy all other living creatures and the earth itself? I'm actually glad that I am a senior citizen and won't be around to see the total destruction of this planet.
So many beautiful things that once were here are being taken away from where they belong. Leave these wild and beautiful creatures alone!
Apparently, Sec. Jewell ignored all pleas of rational thinking yesterday, because nothing has changed. Jewell the enabler, BLM the criminal enterprise defrauding the American Public.
We need to take care of the animals GOD has allowed us to share. And in doing that, we must allow them to be free as intended. Give horses their fair share of land and keep them on the range where they belong. It's the right thing to do.
Wild means wild, leave these horses and burros alone! I wish everyone would realize that wild and natural need to be left alone, that is the way the planet will flourish.
No one has the right to torture wild horses.
Please save these majestic creatures.... BLM please consider these horses and let them live their lives in their habitat!
The methods that the BLM are using are cruel, and not needed. This practice needs to stop immediately. Our wild horses are a treasure that should be respected and protect. Not removed so that the lands can be used for profit for ranchers.
Please stop this inhumane practice. Do not let this be our legacy that we saw this and allowed this. It is our time to stand up and say that this is wrong. We can work together to come up with humane solutions. We know it and our children know it. These horses share this earth with us.

Heyneke Meyer has indicated that Jaco Taute's Springbok future lies at fullback, casting doubt over Zane Kirchner's Test longevity.
Kirchner has been a consistent target of criticism for his perceived attacking limitations, but Meyer has retained faith in the fullback, regularly defending his selection.
However, Meyer, speaking in Cape Town ahead of their year-end tour, revealed that Taute, who was deployed at outside centre after Frans Steyn was ruled out of the Rugby Championship through injury, is his long term preference. Taute, who recently confirmed a loan move from the Lions to the Stormers where he is likely to be the first-choice No 15 in 2013, has also stressed that he feels he is best suited to fullback.
Taute ticks all the boxes in the position: he is defensively sound, has a strong kicking game, good positional sense, is secure under high kicks, is sharp in his reading of the defensive alignment when fielding kicks deep in his half (i.e successfully deciding when to counter-attack and when to punt for field position), runs good angles and has good timing when joining the line on attack and has the speed and physicality to break tackles. At 21, he is also a player Meyer can invest in with confidence of a significant return.
'I believe Taute's best position is 15 and I would have liked to see him at 15 in these [November] Tests. He can offer us something different there,' Meyer told keo.co.za. 'But now with us being thin on midfield cover he may have to continue to play at 13. That said, I see his future at 15 and I've communicated that to him.'
The other hot debate is which one of Morne Steyn or Pat Lambie should start at flyhalf for the tour. Steyn was dropped for the home leg of the Rugby Championship following a number of poor performances. However, with Johan Goosen injured and Elton Jantjies still deemed too raw to start in the northern hemisphere, it is a choice between Steyn and Lambie.
Meyer and his coaching team have constantly hinted that Steyn is their man in light of the conditions they are expected to encounter, but the coach has warmed to Lambie as an option following a string of strong performances in the position for the Sharks.
'I don't believe you should try too many things at Test level, that is for Super Rugby. But I've also said I wanted to use the tour to see one or two different combinations. I've always been honest with Patrick and said that if he wants to be a Test 10 he has to improve his tactical kicking game and he has definitely worked hard on it,' Meyer said.
'You need a tactical 10 in Test rugby. Dan Carter, for example, was excellent in turning us in Soweto and that's the type of kicking game we'll need. Pat has the potential to be a great flyhalf. After this year I want to stick with two flyhalves that I'll take through to the World Cup.'
With injuries forcing his hand Meyer has selected a number of young players during his tenure thus far. Raymond Rhule was a surprise inclusion in the squad, but had shown great promise throughout the Currie Cup. With a host of more experienced wingers ahead of him, he isn't expected to play. Meyer virtually confirmed this, but explained that he had seen too many players who had excelled in the Currie Cup rushed into Test rugby never to play again, and didn't want to repeat those errors.
He intimated that young Rhule was selected to familiarise himself with the team ethos and game plan, with a view to gradually introducing him to Test rugby.
'Look at my career. I've never thrown a young player to the wolves,' he said. 'Raymond Rhule is an exciting talent but I need time to establish how prepared he is for Test rugby, particularly as far as his mental toughness is concerned. He needs to train with the squad and be educated on the game plan. He is a player with huge talent and I think he can be there at the next World Cup. But it is important to manage young players properly.
'There are a lot of youngsters in the squad and I'm excited to see how they respond to the challenge of touring. The biggest thing about the tour is that the World Cup will be in England in 2015 and will be played in the conditions we'll experience there now. I'll have a clearer idea of who has the mental and technical abilities I'm looking for after this tour.'
By Ryan Vrede, in Cape Town

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To determine your risk of developing heart disease
When to Get Tested?
As part of a regular exam with a cholesterol test or lipid profile at least once every five years in adults; youth should be tested at least once between the ages of 9 and 11 and once again between the ages of 17 and 21; at regular intervals when risk factors for heart disease are present, when prior results showed high risk levels, and/or to monitor effectiveness of treatment
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm or from a fingerstick
Test Preparation Needed?
Laboratory tests for LDL-C typically require a 12-hour fast; only water is permitted. Follow any instructions you are given.
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL cholesterol, LDL-C) is one type of lipoprotein that carries cholesterol in the blood. LDL-C consists mostly of cholesterol and similar substances with a small amount of protein. Most often, this test involves using a formula to calculate the amount of LDL-C in blood based on results of a lipid profile. Occasionally, LDL-C is measured directly.
Monitoring and maintaining healthy levels of lipids is important for staying healthy. Eating too much of foods that are high in cholesterol, saturated fats, and trans unsaturated fats (trans fats) or having an inherited predisposition can result in a high level of cholesterol in the blood. The extra cholesterol may be deposited in plaques on the walls of blood vessels. Plaques can narrow or eventually block the opening of blood vessels, leading to hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) and increased risk of numerous health problems, including heart disease and stroke.
LDL cholesterol is considered to be undesirable and is often call "bad" cholesterol because it deposits excess cholesterol in blood vessel walls and contributes to hardening of the arteries and heart disease. This is in contrast to high-density lipoproteins (HDL) that tend to transport cholesterol from the arteries to the liver. HDL is thought to protect against heart disease and so it is often called "good" cholesterol.
The LDL-C test can help determine an individual's risk of heart disease and help guide decisions about what treatment may be best if the person is at borderline or high risk. The results are considered along with other known risk factors of heart disease to develop a plan of treatment and follow up. Treatment options may involve lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, or lipid-lowering medications such as statins.
The results of a standard lipid profile, which consists of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglycerides, are usually used to calculate the amount of LDL-C in the blood. The results are entered into a formula that calculates the amount of cholesterol present in LDL (see Common Questions #4). In most cases, the formula provides a good estimate of the LDL-C, but it becomes less accurate with increased triglyceride levels when, for example, a person has not fasted before having blood drawn. In this situation, the only way to accurately determine LDL-C is to measure it directly. Direct measurement of LDL-C is less affected by triglycerides and can be used when an individual is not fasting or has significantly elevated triglycerides (above 400 mg/dL).
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm. Sometimes a blood sample is collected by puncturing the skin on a fingertip. A fingerstick sample is typically used when a lipid profile is being measured on a portable testing device, for example, at a health fair.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
A calculated test result for LDL cholesterol typically requires a 12-hour fast; only water is permitted. Follow any instructions you are given.

The Growing-Up Feet
The Growing-Up Feet (Paperback)

Four-year-old twins Jimmy and Janet can't wait to grow up. So when they go off to get new shoes, they buy bright red boots that will s-t-r-e-t-c-h and grow along with them. "Catches the nuances of preschool concerns with extraordinary precision."--Kirkus Reviews.
About the Author
Beverly Cleary is one of America's most beloved authors. As a child, she struggled with reading and writing. But by third grade, after spending much time in her public library in Portland, she found her skills had greatly improved. Before long, her school librarian was saying that she should write children's books when she grew up.
Instead she became a librarian. When a young boy asked her, "Where are the books about kids like us?" she remembered her teacher's encouragement and was inspired to write the books she'd longed to read but couldn't find when she was younger. She based her funny stories on her own neighborhood experiences and the sort of children she knew. And so, the Klickitat Street gang was born!
Mrs. Cleary's books have earned her many prestigious awards, including the American Library Association's Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, presented to her in recognition of her lasting contribution to children's literature. Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and Ramona and Her Father have also been named Newbery Honor Books. Her characters, including Beezus and Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, and Ralph, the motorcycle-riding mouse, have delighted children for generations.

Click below to hear the report on the Federal Drive
By Jason Miller
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
The Environmental Protection Agency is using the money saved from changing the way it contracts for Superfund remediation cleanup services to fund other mission critical needs.
John Bashista, the director of EPA's office of acquisition management, says the savings enable the agency to meet needs that otherwise the agency would not have had money for.
EPA's savings come from the government-wide initiative to improve contracting through more competition and by using fewer risky contracts such as time and materials.
The Office of Management and Budget released a fact sheet Wednesday detailing how agencies are doing in meeting President Obama's goal of saving $40 billion in contracting annually by fiscal 2011.
"When I go out and speak with the acquisition workforce and especially listen to the acquisition workforce, I hear people who are charged up and focused in way hasn't been true for years," says Dan Gordon, administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy in an interview with Federal News Radio. "When we talk about the need, for example, to avoid sole source contracting, which are sometimes called one bid or no bid situations, I'm hearing real effort to get that competition out there and I think the acquisition workforce can make all the difference. You see same thing on cost reimbursement. For too long we've had situations where we do a contract using cost reimbursement pricing because the prior one was cost reimbursement and why was that one cost reimbursement, because the one before was cost reimbursement. In other words, we have too much inertia and not enough rethinking."
And it's that rethinking that is helping EPA-and other agencies-begin to see change in their acquisition cultures.
"I think the initiative really helped facilitate a more innovative thinking among agencies to get out of the paradigm or get out of box of doing things the traditional way," Bashista says. "I think it also heightened the visibility of the perspective that the acquisition workforce involves more than contracting officers and specialist, but does involve a wide variety of people--the program organizations have a role in the acquisition process, the budget folks, the legal counsel, finance folks--and from that perspective the initiative really helped to facilitate a broader thinking about how we approach acquisition."
He adds that EPA looked beyond OMB's requirements to see how they could take advantage of rebates through purchase cards or reutilization of excess property.
Chuck Gherardini, EPA's deputy director in the office of acquisition management, says his office used historical data to specifically identify the services needed and estimate what the cost would be for Superfund cleanup services.
In the end, more contractors competed for the work and that lowered the price, he says.
EPA estimates that it is paying 65 percent less under the firm fixed price contract than under the cost reimbursement type of contract previously used for these services.
Along with EPA, OMB highlighted the Homeland Security Department's use of reverse auctions to purchase commercial products. DHS says it paid $40 million less overall than it estimated it would pay.
The National Nuclear Security Administration acquired cybersecurity and IT services by splitting up one large contract into two smaller ones. NNSA received more competition and saved $22 million, or paid 15 percent less than previously for the same or better services.
And finally, the Defense Department and the Interior Department worked together to procure call center operation services where the price is based on the volume of calls and not a single fixed price.
Gordon says sharing lessons learned such as these is the way the administration plans on keeping the momentum going around the contracting reforms.
"This is really about changing the culture," he says. "As we strengthen our acquisition workforce, which is going on in every agency of the government right now, as we improve the training we give to the acquisition workforce, we are working hard to change the culture. To give you a concrete example, award fee contracts should absolutely not be used unless the appropriate criteria are met. That means they should be the exception and not the rule."
Gordon says the same goes for cost reimbursement and sole source contracts as well. He says getting contracting officers to recognize the limits is as much a culture change as anything else.
"Fiscal responsibility means using competition and that can be a slow battle," he says. "We are turning the tide."
Part of the evidence the administration points to in turning the tide is recent progress made by agencies in increasing competition and reducing the use of risky contracts.

This is a 10-power wide-field lens for use on the Bausch & Lomb Zoom 240 Stereoscopic Viewer on the Cutler Hammer AIL 1540 light table. This light table was used by the U.S. intelligence community to analyze film from photoreconnaissance satellites and aircraft beginning in 1971. In contrast to earlier light tables, the AIL 1540 had motorized film drives, microscope mounts, and elevation control. It could handle 70 mm and 5 inch, 6.6 inch and 9 inch wide film, and permitted the viewing of two stereo rolls simultaneously. Despite the introduction of computerized systems in 1981 to process imagery returned digitally from photoreconnaissance satellites and aircraft, light tables such as the AIL 1540 are still used today with older imagery that has never been digitized.
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency transferred this artifact to the Museum in 2004.

AFCEA Bethesda Health IT Day
The annual Health IT Day hosted by AFCEA Bethesda invites federal senior executives and IT professionals to share lessons learned around IT program management, acquisition and the budget process.
TBI treatment improves after 10 years of war
Thursday - 10/18/2012, 11:40am EDT
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most stubborn and long-lasting problems produced by 10 years of war, but there is progress in its treatment.
"The brain is a wonderful thing, and it is plastic," said Dr. Andrew Ritcheson, senior consulting psychologist and program manager at contractor DRC. "It develops and it can grow and it can also be tremendously injured. What we need to do is to work on rehabilitation and bringing people back to health."
Ritcheson spoke the Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp Thursday from AFCEA Health IT Day. Hosted by AFCEA Bethesda, the annual event invites federal senior executives and IT professionals to share lessons learned around IT program management, acquisition and the budget process.
"DRC is involved in trying to bring innovations and solutions to challenging problems within this space," Ritcheson said. A lot of these solutions involve health care and health challenges within the Military Health System and the departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs.
According to Ritcheson, both VA and DoD have become more proficient at treating TBI. "We've had a lot of years at war and we've had a lot of experience trying to develop new ways to approach these challenges, a lot of them above the neck, a lot of them below the neck as well, he said.
Dr. Ritcheson, left, senior consulting psychologist and program manager at contractor DRC, was interviewed by Tom Temin of the Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp at AFCEA Health IT Day in Bethesda, Md.
The protective body armor and the armored vehicles employed in Iraq and Afghanistan have boosted the survivability rate among war fighters. This has led to a corresponding advancement in the treatment for injuries like TBI for patients, who, in previous conflicts, may not have survived with those injuries.
"The survivability rates have increased markedly," Ritcheson said. "But along with that, the nature of the injuries have changed as well. We simply haven't seen these sorts of injuries before.
One of the most pernicious combinations of injuries medical workers are seeing is around TBI and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
"These often occur at the same time," Ritcheson said. "They're called 'comorbid,' and they bring with it a whole lot of symptoms that we don't really well understand currently, and we don't understand how it's going to progress over time. As we go along, we're adding to the science, but we also have a current need to care. So, we can't be patient. We have to give them treatment now."
The challenge in treating a patient with TBI is that caregivers must deal with both the physical and psychological aspects of the injury.
"There's no one-size-fits-all," Ritcheson said. "Both of these things, both physical and psychological are happening against sort of a social tapestry as well. It's a complicated thing to unpick, which to do first and what's causing what?"
One thing that has improved, according to Ritcheson, is TBI patients are receiving a much better diagnosis than in the past. Also, treatments unfold much more rapidly because of what doctors have learned about the nature of these injuries.
"Part of the exciting new sciences is around imaging and the way of diagnosing and treating these injuries, that's on the horizon as well," he said.
Some of the most recent clinical developments involve putting the people in place who are able to make those developments stick in the places they need to happen.
"So, if you can put people between IT, health technology and all of those exciting developments and the actual need on the ground or in the clinics, and having people championing that and acting as change agents, that's one of the most important clinical developments and it is the least clinical," Ritcheson said.

What is your favorite place on campus?
My favorite place on campus is a tie between my Sophomore year hall (2nd floor Welch!!) and the Kennel during a basketball game. It was so fun getting to know the girls in my hall and doing things with them around campus and Spokane like hiking, ice skating, movie watching, tie dying, and cookie decorating, among other adventures. Any any GU student will tell you there is nothing more thrilling than participating in the crazy-intense atmosphere (in the Kennel) that is created during a rivalry game!
What about your favorite place in Spokane?
Spokane has many great places to offer and while I am a definite fan of the Centennial Trail and Riverside Park, I have to say that the Knitting Factory during a fun concert may take the cake! A ton of great artists come through Spokane and it's nice to go downtown for dinner and an affordable concert.
Which class and/or professor have you enjoyed the most so far?
Tough question - there have been a few classes that I would consider to be favorites! Although it is a non-academic class, Yoga was probably the most relaxing, but I have to say that Dr. Rinehart's sociology classes in general are life-changing and wonderful. Also, Dr. Easterling's Shakespeare class opened my eyes and mind to some incredible literature, history and culture. Both professors inspired me to think differently and view the world with more awareness, and I will sign up for their classes whenever possible!
Give us a fun fact about you:
I got my pilot's license when I turned 16 and enjoy flying as a hobby!
What extra-curricular activity do you enjoy the most?
While at GU, I have enjoyed participating in the SMILE volunteering program both as a mentor and as a leader. I love interacting with the kids at local schools and helping the children as well as the mentors I lead foster healthy and lasting relationships. The activities have been a blast and volunteering at Logan Elementary School is a highlight of my week. CCASL (through which all our volunteer programs operate) in general has phenomenal programs and I am thrilled to be a part of a couple of them!
Even though you haven't left Gonzaga yet, what is your favorite memory so far?
Again, tough call! I have really enjoyed a few of the Coffeehouse nights in particular (who doesn't love an acoustic performance accompanied by some Chai?!?), and participating on the champion teams of intramural volleyball for the past 2 years has been quite spectacular!

|Introduction | Canon EF 135mm f/2.8 lens performance | Canon EF 135mm f/2.8 versus competition | Conclusion
At DxOMark, we put the lens through our rigorous testing. However, we excluded the lens' two softfocus settings when we analyzed it in our labs. These softfocus settings would have impacted its performance in specific categories like sharpness.
Strengths of the Canon's EF 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus lens:
• Sharpness was good, especially at f/5.6.
• Chromatic aberration, which was measured at 6µm, was well controlled.
• Distortion was minimal.
Questionable aspects of the Canon's EF 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus lens:
• The lens received a transmission score of 3.2 T-stop, meaning the widest aperture is closer to f/3.1, not the advertised f/2.8.
• The lens had notable vignetting at the low aperture f/2.8.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.

By Jason Miller
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
When it comes to fiscal 2013 budget requests, the key word is revision. But for the 2012 budget, agencies have a different point of view: confusion.
"We have absolutely no idea of what our budget will look like and I don't think anyone does," said Jim Taylor, the Labor Department's chief financial officer. "We have a number of offices that have had to go back and restructure their budget because they were confused because we didn't have a 2011 budget, 2012 is up in the air and now we are looking at 2013. So to figure out what we will be asking for a year-and-a-half from now, you have to make a lot of assumptions. You have to be very structured and very disciplined."
And now the Office of Management and Budget is asking agencies to revise their 2013 requests to cut 5 percent in discretionary spending and offer ideas to cut at least another 5 percent.
Not across-the-board cuts
"This does not mean that we will institute either a 5 percent or 10 percent cut in an individual agency's budget or in all agency budgets," wrote OMB Director Jacob Lew in a blog post. "We asked agencies to provide these two options so that the president can have the information needed to make the tough choices necessary to meet the hard spending targets put in place by the Budget Control Act [the debt ceiling deal] and to meet the needs of the nation. We do not believe in making across-the-board cuts; rather, we believe that we should cut what is wasteful or not essential and invest in what is critical to long-term growth and other priorities. Thus, some agency budgets will decrease (and some more than others), some will stay flat, and some may increase (and, again, some more than others) — and the same goes for programs within agencies."
Many agencies had already submitted their 2013 request to their chief financial officers for review.
"The hard thing for us right now is where we are in time. We're very close to the very end of fiscal 2011. We have bills pending in both chambers for fiscal 2012. Those bills were based on a very different assumption on what the defense top line would be," said Erin Conaton, the Air Force's undersecretary and chief management officer, at a panel discussion this week with military CMOs. "You've got 2011, 2012 and 2013 budgets all coming together, but under very changed circumstances. We are working away through what the first tranche of reductions will look like."
The Air Force is struggling, she said, because it knows only what round one of cuts look like and aren't sure whether round two would happen or, even, what it could look like.
"How do you think about shaping your force if you are planning for a $400 billion reduction or something much larger than that?" she said.
Under pressure
DoD isn't the only agency or department under budget pressure. Every civilian agency expects 2012 and 2013 discretionary spending to go down by more than the 5 percent OMB is asking for.
The House has passed six 2012 appropriations bills, while the Senate has passed only one.
In the House version of the Commerce, Justice and Science appropriations bill, funding is down 6 percent from last year and is 13 percent less than the president's request, according to a committee release.
The Interior-Environment appropriations bill sets 2012 funding at $27.5 billion — $106 million below last year's level.
Energy and Water and Related Agencies Appropriations bill would drop funding to $30.6 billion — $5.9 billion below the President's request and $1 billion below last year — which brings the total cost of the bill to nearly the 2006 funding level, the committee stated.
The signs coming from the House and now OMB when it comes to agency discretionary spending are forcing agencies to focus only on priorities.
"It has forced the department to be very aggressive in priority setting and establishing what we really need to do," Taylor, Labor's CFO, said. "We literally have to identify what our core mission requirements are. As we go through our budget process, [this is] the structure we put on it: Does the budget reflect what our priorities are? The reasons we feel like we are and, if not, we realign it. We don't want to play the budget games where [you say] 'Okay I know that you like this so I'll offer it as a cut, and I know you will not take it.' Those games are over for most of us. You really have to identify your core mission and have to be aggressive in aligning your budget priorities to that core mission."

Rhinitis, commonly known as a runny nose, is the medical term describing irritation and inflammation of some internal areas of the nose. The primary symptom of rhinitis is nasal dripping. It is caused by chronic or acute inflammation of the mucous membrane of the nose due to viruses, bacteria or irritants.
The inflammation results in the generating of excessive amounts of mucus, commonly producing the aforementioned runny nose, as well as nasal congestion and post-nasal drip.
According to recent studies completed in the United States, more than 50 million Americans are current sufferers. Rhinitis has also been found to adversely affect more than just the nose, throat, and eyes.
It has been associated with sleeping problems, ear conditions, and even learning problems. Rhinitis is caused by an increase in histamine. This increase is most often caused by airborne allergens. These allergens may affect an individual's nose, throat, or eyes and cause an increase in fluid production within these areas.
Rhinitis is categorized into three types: infective rhinitis includes acute and chronic bacterial infections; nonallergic (vasomotor) rhinitis includes autonomic, hormonal, drug-induced, atrophic, and gustatory rhinitis, as well as rhinitis medicamentosa; allergic rhinitis, the mic reaction triggered by pollen, mold, animal dander, dust and other similar inhaled allergens.

BURLINGTON-Division One's best and brightest track and field stars were at Burlington High School on Saturday to take part in the State Meet on what turned out to be a beautiful summer day.
The North Country Falcons sent over thirteen competitors to the meet, including senior Jenna Moss, who opted to compete at the event instead of take part in her graduation ceremony.
Division III Meet
CHESTER-The Division III Vermont State Track Meet was held at Green Mountain High School on Saturday, and the Lake Region Rangers were there representing Orleans County in fine fashion.
The girls relay teams were on fire on Saturday, as Tyrah Urie, Haley Kennedy Karamae Hayman-Jones and Emily Close teamed up to win the girls 4x400 with a time of 4:26.24.
Urie and Hayman-Jones picked up another blue ribbon when, along with Averill Snyder and Karina Cimborova, won the 4x100 in 54.24 seconds.
LYNDON–Lake Region's Matt Messier and Lyndon Institute's Davis Guyer engaged in a lengthy pitcher's duel on Friday, and in the end it would be the senior Guyer winning the battle, leading his team to a 4-1 win over the Rangers in the Division II baseball quarter-finals.
WILLISTON-North Country Union High School's girls golf team traveled to Williston Country Club on Monday for a practice round prior to Tuesday's State Finals.
Representing the team was freshman Katie Goulet, junior Tanika Demers, and senior/captain Paige Gagnon.
Each day was hotter than the next, and with the humidity and hilly course, scoring was a challenge.
Katie's practice round was actually better than her competitive round by eight strokes.
Her 91 on Tuesday placed her 3rd in Division I and 5th overall in Vermont.
After coming so close to winning last season, the Lake Region trio of Olivia King, Celeste Lussier and Rebecca Doucet were able to climb the mountain, as they shot a 201 to edge out Rice by six strokes and bring home the Division II State Title.
"It's very satisfying to win after being the runner-up last year," said senior Celeste Lussier. "We had the 'State Champ' mentality all year, and finally all the hard work paid off."
Another thing that paid off was playing a tougher Metro Division schedule this season, which gave the Lady Rangers much tougher competition than in previous years.
ORLEANS-The Lake Region Rangers played host to the Mount Abraham Eagles in the opening round of the Division II play-offs on Tuesday, and armed with will and determination, they rallied back from a 3-2, 7th inning hole to win with a walk-off double by Matt Messier.
"I was happy to pull it out," said LR coach Eric Degre. "I am glad the boys didn't give up. We could have easily just folded over."
ST. JOHNSBURY- The North Country Union softball team lost 5-4 as they visited St. Johnsbury Academy Tuesday evening for the first round of play-offs.
"We need to beat the teams we can beat," said NCU coach LeslieDunn in a post-game interview. "We handed too many away this year. It's the little things."
For the full story see the Express on 6-4-14.
NEWPORT-The North Country Falcons wrapped up their regular season on Saturday with a doubleheader against first Rice, and then second St. Johnsbury.
While neither game went the way the Falcons would have wanted, what did happen was a fine display of just how far this year's team has advanced from the teams that have recently come before them.
"I thought the effort was good," said NCU coach Brian Bonvechio. "In the second game I thought we played hard, we had a couple of physical mistakes, errors, but those are going to happen, you can't eliminate those so I have nothing to complain about.
ORLEANS- In an efficient five innings, Lake Region baseball defeated guest Danville Friday afternoon before the umpires called the game early due to thunder and rain.
Josh Locke took the mound for the home squad and continued a productive season by doing what he is supposed to: throw strikes. The defense behind him would worry about the rest.
To see the rest of the story, see the Express on 6-2-14.
ORLEANS-North Country's Katie Goulet took home home the individual top spot, but it was the Lake Region team coming in first place at the Orleans Country Club on Thursday afternoon.
Goulet shot a match-low of 45, but the Lady Rangers' Olivia King (48) and Celeste Lussier (49) were right behind her and combined to score a 97 to give the host team the win.
Becky Doucet had a season-best score of 60 for Lake Region.
North Country's Paige Gagnon shot a 57, which along with Goulet's 45 gave the Falcons a team score of 102.

DARKE COUNTY - Approximately 25 roads were reported closed in the county Sunday afternoon as a result of the flood that took place over the weekend.
A total of 4.58 inches of precipitation fell in a 36-hour period in the Greenville area, according to a spokesperson at the local water treatment plant. Much of that was probably due to the snow that had fallen earlier and melted with the escalating temperatures.
As temperatures melted the snow, there was constant precipitation since Friday, not stopping until early morning Sunday. And on Saturday night, which was officially the first day of winter, a flash flood warning and a severe thunderstorm warning were issued and occurred.
High winds were reported and some areas, and there were reported sporadic power outages in the area.
Kim Knick, a dispatcher at the sheriff's office said that department was busy during the storm. She was the one who reported that at least 25 roads were closed because of impassibility due to high water.
"In Arcanum, a car washed away in town," she said.
Some vehicles, it was noted, were stranded because drivers attempted to drive through the water-logged roadways.
In Greenville City Park, some of the streets were closed to traffic, especially at the main lagoon and near the Greenville Creek where water ran out into the roadways.
