Curing our Alzheimer's epidemic
Every American president must take on a defining challenge to mobilize the American spirit and advance the American story. The too-brief presidency of John F. Kennedy is remembered for a commitment to land a man on the moon within a decade. And this we did. Ronald Reagan declared that a resolute America would "transcend" communism. Less than a year after he left office, the Berlin Wall fell without a shot being fired.
Alzheimer's disease is our generation's defining challenge. It is quickly becoming one of the greatest public and financial health issues of our time. The House's passage Wednesday of the National Alzheimer's Project Act sends this critical legislation to the White House for President Obama's signature. Passage was a first step toward development of a strategic national plan to fight this disease.
Let us set before the nation the goal of defeating Alzheimer's within the next decade.
Much as President Kennedy launched an expedition to the moon, why can't we launch an expedition to the brain - the last frontier of biomedical research - to discover the cures for Alzheimer's and so many other neurological diseases that affect millions of American families?
Our nation is locked in an energy-sapping debate over its fiscal future. Among our many challenges are the interlinked medical and fiscal threats of aging and illness. The health-care costs of older Americans are the most significant driver of government spending, and the chronic diseases of those using Medicare and Medicaid are sapping patients' families financially and emotionally.
The time has come to turn from partisanship and despair about our fiscal future and recall once more the power of a visionary goal to mobilize American ingenuity and innovation - and lift the American spirit.
Alzheimer's must be considered a full-blown epidemic: It is killing some 5.3 million Americans now and challenges more than 11 million caregivers annually, the majority of whom are women increasingly drawn out of the workforce to care for a relative even as they care for their children. More than half of all Americans know someone with the disease, according to polling data done by the Shriver Report and USAgainstAlzheimer's.
Alzheimer's is a family disease, affecting the emotional, physical and financial health of multiple generations. We understand the enormous toll this disease takes on families. One of us had a husband who suffered from it, and the other has a father who still does. The lion's share of the costs are borne by families - at too high a price. Already Medicaid is spending more than $24 billion annually on care for victims whose families have gone bankrupt trying to cover those costs. On Jan. 1, the baby boom generation begins to turn 65 at the rate of 10,000 people per day for the next 19 years. The number of Alzheimer's cases will rise rapidly, and the drain on American productivity and female caregivers will sap our national strength.
Meanwhile, the costs of Alzheimer's are also escalating rapidly. Annual spending on care for those with the disease is more than $170 billion - and is projected to reach $2 trillion over the next decade.
So what are the best strategies for dealing with an epidemic? Cure and prevention. They are not only the most compassionate approaches but also the most fiscally conservative.
Polio was once a raging epidemic, crippling and killing, but we developed a vaccine. We didn't simply invest in better wheelchairs, leg braces and iron lungs - we invested in innovative medicine. Now our society spends virtually nothing on polio, because we don't have to; the vaccine has paid for itself millions of times over.
HIV/AIDS raged in the mid-1980s, but we as a nation rolled up our sleeves, developed a plan, invested in treatments and turned an aggressive killer into a manageable disease. That $10 billion government investment was considerable, but it also saved the nation $1.4 trillion in costs of care.
Recently, fiscal experts from across the political spectrum have issued solid and thoughtful reports suggesting ways to reduce the national deficit and debt. Yet none of these reports, earnest as they might be, has a galvanizing national goal at its heart.
The best way to reduce spending is to eliminate the diseases that cost this country so much to treat. One study found that a medical breakthrough against Alzheimer's - even one that merely delays the age of onset by just five years - would mean 1.6 million fewer American deaths from the disease and annual savings of $362 billion by 2050.
Americans would embrace that common-sense approach. Unlocking the mysteries of the brain and finding a cure for Alzheimer's and other neurological diseases would be a win for individual health, deficit reduction and the economy.
So now we need leaders looking to get ahead of an epidemic headed right for us, leaders with the vision of JFK or Ronald Reagan, leaders ready to take on a worthy quest of their own.

By Laura Saunders
Weekend Investor's recent feature, "Write Off Your Job Hunt!" offers a tax guide for the unemployed. It has drawn much reader interest and a few questions.
For answers we turned to Douglas Stives, a professor at Monmouth University in West Long Branch, N.J. Stives was a full-time CPA for 36 years and still practices part-time in addition to teaching at Monmouth's business school. He prides himself on making optimum use of tax deductions allowed by Uncle Sam, and last spring he was featured in a WSJ article dubbing him "The Most Tax-Efficient Man."
Stives agrees with experts cited in the story that often a job hunter's best hope for maximizing deductions is to set up a Schedule C sole proprietorship and look for part-time as well as full-time work, so that the same deductions work for both.
Like them, he also stresses that taxpayers must have some income to offset the deductions. "The good news is, you don't have to have income in the first year, just in three out of five years," says Stives. "It also helps if you can show that some of the future income was generated by your earlier expenses."
Here are his answers to a few specific questions.
May I deduct $600 of legal fees incurred to review a severance agreement?
Not in a Schedule C business, says Stives, because the expense has nothing to do with future income. But he would argue that it is an unreimbursed business expense to the ex-employee, that qualifies as a miscellaneous deduction on Schedule A, "because it is connected with severance pay."
May I deduct a cell phone used exclusively for job-hunting?
Yes, but . . . New IRS rules mean that business phones are deemed to be 75% for business use, with the rest personal use. The good news is no more logging of phone calls to determine business vs. personal use. The bad news, says Stives, is that "You'll have a hard time convincing an IRS agent that a cell phone has 100% business use, even if it does."
Please explain more about which unreimbursed travel costs are deductible.
The following rules apply for business travel within the U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.S. possessions, and some Caribbean islands, says Stives.
Travel costs are deductible if a majority of your total days are spent on business. Travel days—normally the first and last days of the trip—aren't part of the computation. Taxpayers also don't have to count weekend days if they don't normally work weekends, says Stives.
How long is a business day? It depends, but Stives says at least four hours in many cases.
There are exceptions, however. Say someone flies to a distant area for an interview for a full-time job. The interview takes two hours, and that's it for the day. Later the prospective employee hears he didn't get the job, but the company says it might have contract work for him.
Says Stives, "The day was primarily for business, so I believe the travel costs would still be deductible on Schedule C."
Corrections: Douglas Stives was a full-time CPA for 36 years. An earlier version of this blog post incorrectly stated that he was a CPA for 36 decades.

On May 16, USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) celebrated its 40th anniversary. The program activities and responsibilities of APHIS have grown and evolved since the agency's birth in 1972. But the mission remains the same: serving the public by protecting the health and value of American agriculture and natural resources, according to Gregory Parham, DVM, APHIS administrator. In his blog he writes:
"Over the past 40 years, APHIS has played a vital role in ensuring the health and abundance of this nation's agriculture. Today, protecting America's agriculture and natural resources means many things to APHIS. It means ensuring the health of our animal and plant resources both at home and as they move through the global marketplace; guarding against the introduction or reemergence of animal and plant pests and diseases that could limit agricultural production and damage export markets; and monitoring and responding to potential acts of agricultural bioterrorism, as well as to invasive species, disease outbreaks, and conflicts between humans and wildlife.
"It means eliminating trade barriers and ensuring the humane treatment of animals. And it means making sure biotechnology-derived agricultural products are safe for release into the environment. These are just some of the ways in which APHIS' work benefits Americans every day.
"APHIS strongly believes in working closely with its partners and stakeholders to get results. States, Tribal Nations and industry groups actively work with APHIS to help manage the many issues that affect agriculture. APHIS is also committed to improving and modernizing those business processes and programs most important to our customers by streamlining, accelerating delivery, and using innovative technologies.
"APHIS was created when USDA merged two separate regulatory bureaus into a single agency to handle both plant and animal health. For a more complete history of APHIS, please visit the APHIS website.
"USDA is also celebrating a milestone anniversary this year – its 150th. Back when President Abraham Lincoln established the USDA in 1862, about half of all Americans lived on farms, compared with about 2% today. But through USDA's work on food, agriculture, economic development, science, natural resource conservation and a host of issues, USDA still fulfills Lincoln's vision – touching the lives of every American, every day. By protecting, promoting and expanding the value of American agriculture, APHIS has been a key part of the effort over the past 40 years. As USDA commemorates 150 years of accomplishments, the department is learning from past experiences and looking to the future."

Banaue is a town on the Cordillera mountain range in the north of the island of Luzon, in the Philippines. It is mainly visited for its stunning rice terraces, which are a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Get in
By bus
Many bus companies and tour agencies have trips to Banaue. There are 3 ways to get to Banaue from Manila. Manila direct to Banaue. Manila to Baguio to Banaue, or the Manila to Baguio and to Bontoc, and to Banaue trip. Each has its own interest.
Ohayami Trans
Manila-Solano, Nueva Vizcaya-Banaue ifugao - buses heading to Tuguegarao (e.g. Baliwag transit, Victory, etc.) pass by the town of Solano. Several jeepneys ply the Solano-Banaue route or the Solano-Lagawe, Ifugao route. From Lagawe, one can then take another jeepney to Banaue.
Manila-Tarlac-Solano-Banaue - buses heading for Baguio pass by Tarlac. Vizcaya liner plies the Tarlac-Solano route at 5 am.
By car
The distance between the Balintawak Cloverleaf, in north Manila at the beginning of the North Luzon Expressway and the Welcome to Banaue sign, is about 332 km. The road is paved all the way to Banaue. Travel time can be as long as 9 hours due to the several blind curves through the mountains.
Best day to travel is on good Friday of Lenten season, Christmas day and new year's day. It will take about 7 hours only by car with a reliable driver.
Get around
Jeepneys (converted jeeps/bus) and tricycles (trikes) (little motorcycles with side cars) are easily available around Banaue. Vans can be hired with driver/guide. Expect to hike some to great places to see that are not on the roads.
There is a public jeepney plying the Banaue-to-saddle-point (start of trek to Batad village) route daily. See Get Out, below for more info.
Many kinds of carved woods.
Native rice wine or sugarcane wine at all inns and lodges.
The grand old lady, Banaue Hotel, is probably the priciest option you'll find but offers regular cultural shows in the evenings (Ifugao dance and music) that are also open to non-guests. The pool is small but a nice place to hang out when you're tired of trekking up and down rice terraces.
Closer to town, there are a multitude of hostels and guesthouses offering much more reasonably priced accommodations.
There are several internet cafes around the town, the rate ranges from 50 to 20 pesos per hour.

Patient Pad
The "Patient Pad" is a hardware and software solution from Digital Assent. Our company was founded with the simple goal of making the "patient clipboard" a thing of the past. The "Patient-Pad" simplifies the gathering of patient information by automating the patient intake process. Patients can register online in advance of their visit or use a portable touch screen tablet to check in with their healthcare provider at the point of care, verify insurance eligibility, and sign any required consent forms.
We have two main target audiences: (a) healthcare providers (doctors / physician groups / hospitals), and (b) patients who use the "Patient Pad" to check-in with their doctor and then subsequently visit our website (www.patient-pad.com, which will be designed once we have a logo and branding) to manage their patient record online and share their patient information with other doctors.
We want the logo and branding to be clean and professional, with a "mark" that is distinctive and can stand alone without the "Patient Pad" name next to it. Please feel free to experiment with colors!
We will require the original vector art (ex: .ai, .eps, .svg). We can create our own GIFs, JPGs, PNGs, etc. Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo.

The vampire genre has not run its course. Not when a story exists about un-sexy vampires who shed their genitals because they aren't even worried about having sex.
That was the message on Tuesday in Pasadena during a Television Critics Assn. press tour panel on "The Strain," Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan's upcoming vampyric horror story based on the pair's bestselling novel of the same name.
Showrunner Carlton Cuse ("Lost') was on hand to discuss plans for the 13-episode series, which is set to premiere in July. Cuse is also the executive producer of A&E's "Bates Motel."
'We're immensely grateful to FX for giving us the resources and time to prepare this thing like a movie," he said. "We've been working on it for 18 months. You'll never look at vampires the same way after this. These are not brooding dudes with romantic problems. ... These are scary dudes. This is really an reimagining of vampire lore."
If successful, this reimagining should give new legs to a genre that has grown old over many years of similar retelling. "True Blood" and "Twilight" for example, have become Gothic, romantic mainstays. The scary creature aspect of vampires has since fallen by the wayside in favor of the creature's more romantic stereotypes.
So when the monsters in "The Strain" shed their genitals, you know the creators mean business.
"They're not sexy, although there is sex in the show," Cuse said. "But the vampires themselves are not having sex on the show. They're not romantic creatures. You'll see when you watch."
Since the show is still in its infancy, FX plans to hold a proper panel for it this year at the summer TCAs, but until then, FX wants the world to get behind the intrigue of the original premise.
"The show opens with the arrival of an airplane that lands at John F. Kennedy airport," Cuse said. "It rolls to a stop and everyone on the airplane appears to be dead. The mysterious cargo is the way this strain of vampire activity will spread to New York City, and ultimately to the rest of the world."

Convenient condo in Kapiolani
You've probably driven by the Ala Wai Plaza dozens of times. Its curved glass circulation tower stands out as you drive toward Diamond Head on Kapiolani Boulevard at the corner of University Avenue.
While the building may not have the flash of the newer condos built in the 2000s, this 25-story condominium, built in 1970, is a well maintained example of the modern architecture boom of the time.
This three-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath condo just came back onto the market last week after being in contract. (Click here for details.)
The 1,432-square-foot unit features a living/dining area with hardwood floors, a lanai off the living room, plus a half bath for guests downstairs. The staircase is an open design allowing for an airy feel. The cross ventilation in the 20th floor unit makes great use of the trade winds, so you can leave your air conditioner off most days.
The owners, who are moving to California, renovated the kitchen and baths about five years ago. Granite countertops were installed in the kitchen, along with a double vanity in the master bath.
Upstairs houses the three bedrooms and two of the baths. The master bedroom, with plantation shutters for privacy, spans the space of the unit overlooking Ala Wai Park and the canal. The other bedrooms are on the mauka side.
The building's amenities include a pool, exercise room, barbecue area and meeting room.
There's good news for those with a green thumb who long for a garden. One of the city's 10 community gardens is practically in your backyard. The Ala Wai Community Garden, which has 157 plots, is at the end of University Avenue, next to the elementary school.
Also, if you've got a penchant for paddling, the Waikiki Surf Club practices just makai of the building on the canal.
The fuzz factor: Two pets are allowed, each with a 20-pound weight limit.
Two covered parking stalls come with the unit. Alas, there is no guest parking and street parking is tight here. However, its convenient location is super close to TheBus.
Money talk: $639,000 fee simple

Speaking at the meeting on "Tropical Forests, Climate Change, Integrated Reporting and The Post-2015 Sustainable Development Goals" that took place on Wednesday at the Royal Society in London, The Prince of Wales implored governments to take further action in the climate change campaign.
Warning the gathering that the past floods in India and the recent catastrophic Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines will continue unless plans to curb greenhouse gas emissions were implemented to take on climate change, the Prince said:
"The devastating impact of Typhoon Haiyan in The Philippines should surely have been a poignant and telling reminder of the intimacy and interdependence of man's relationship with the natural world," in a statement via Clarence House.
The meeting was scheduled as the government has guaranteed to subsidize £74 million to sponsor a programme intended to protect the earth's forests whilst meetings at the United Nations in regards to climate change resumed.
Speaking with a sense of urgency, Charles remarked:
"The facts and the science are clear and inescapable you would have thought, and so before us we have a rapidly narrowing window of opportunity – as individuals, as governments, companies, nations, and as an international community – to act with the scale and urgency needed to undertake the transition towards a radically more sustainable and resilient long-term global economic model."
A tireless supporter of environmental issues including climate change, he alluded to his recent trip to India and speaking with those in Uttarakhand, the Himalayan region where the floods caused over 5,700 people to perish and thousands to be made homeless.
"The Chief Minister of that state bent my ear about the disaster and the problems they were having trying to come to terms with what are likely to be even more extreme weather events," he said.
Charles thought that the role of private companies can also be pivotal in the reduction of deforestation and climate change: "all around the world we are faced increasingly with the complications caused by sometimes an inability to take the necessary action."
Joining the UK in a new endeavour are the United States and Norway. The trio of countries will work closer with the World Bank to decrease greenhouse gasses that are brought about by deforestation. Jointly they will provide around £173 million directed at assisting areas to avoid the cutting down of trees.
Thanking everyone for attending, he concluded: "there is no doubt that your collective, integrated influence and weight are crucial ingredients in delivering the kind of determined action that can transform seemingly endless discussions, debate and negotiation into the safe level resilient and more harmonious world we so urgently need for our children and grandchildren."

Rangers press on despite Ryan's uncertainty
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- As far as general manager Jon Daniels is concerned, he still reports to Nolan Ryan.
"From a reporting structure, nothing has changed," Daniels said. "We're focused on trying to put a team together and get the team ready for the season."
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- As far as general manager Jon Daniels is concerned, he still reports to Nolan Ryan.
"From a reporting structure, nothing has changed," Daniels said. "We're focused on trying to put a team together and get the team ready for the season."
That was the goal coming into camp, but now the focus has completely changed and is squarely on Ryan's future with the organization. Ryan still has not addressed the matter, but there has been speculation -- as first reported by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram -- that he could step down as Rangers chief executive officer as early as the end of Spring Training.
The biggest concern for Ryan, according to sources, is making sure he continues to have a meaningful role in the organization and not be reduced to a ceremonial position. That is the core issue that needs to be resolved.
Ryan, originally hired by former owner Tom Hicks, has been the team president for the past five years and has been in complete charge of every day-to-day aspect of the organization. He added the title of CEO in 2011 after the Rangers were sold to the current ownership group led by Ray Davis and Bob Simpson.
Last Friday, the Rangers announced that Daniels was being given the title of president of baseball operations and Rick George would be president of business operations. That left Ryan with the title of chief executive officer. What has been left unclear is what day-to-day responsibilities remain with Ryan and what has been transferred to Daniels and George.
If Ryan feels his responsibilities have been reduced too much, he may feel it's time to step down completely.
"He didn't express that to me," Daniels said Wednesday morning. "We've spoken every day since then. Nolan has been straightforward. He said he has no issues with me. We continue to discuss matters pertaining to the club."
Ryan was at Wednesday's game, watching the Rangers' 3-2 victory over the Cubs from his front-row seat next to the dugout. He declined to be interviewed.
Daniels said the situation needs to be resolved at some point.
"Yeah, distractions don't benefit anyone," Daniels said. "I don't think it's a distraction to the players, but you don't like it when you're talking about anything other than baseball. That's not time well spent."
Ryan is still in Surprise with the Rangers and otherwise everything was business as usual for the Rangers. They had a "B" game with the Cubs on Wednesday morning and the regular Cactus League game against them in the afternoon.
The "B" game was held on what has been named "Nolan Ryan Field."
"We've gone through stuff like the sale of the club and the bankruptcy, and this stuff doesn't distract the players in the clubhouse on a day-to-day basis," second baseman Ian Kinsler said. "I really don't know what's going on. I don't know where the communication breakdown is but whatever the owners or the front office is going to do to make us run smoother, I'm all for it."
The Rangers appear to have been running fairly smoothly for the past three years. They have made the playoffs three straight years and been to two World Series. They have a lucrative new local television contract coming up in the next few years, they set a new attendance record with 3,460,280 fans last season and they continue to make significant renovations to the Ballpark in Arlington.
But there is no doubt that if Ryan leaves the organization, it could have an immediate and dramatic impact on just about everybody.
"I don't know enough information," outfielder David Murphy said. "Obviously, you always want a guy like Nolan around. He's obviously an asset to the organization. I don't know what he's thinking, all I hear are rumors and things of that sort.
"But you never want to see a guy like Nolan walk away from the organization."

Of all the myths about autism -- and whoo boy are there a lot -- one of the most prevalent marks kids on the spectrum as unfeeling, lacking the ability to love and desire to feel a human connection. Guess what y'all? Teenagers with autism are the same mess of hormones and lust as their peers. They want to date too.
And thanks to two particular college kids with Asperger's who volunteered to work with The New York Times and their Love on the Spectrum project late last year, these loving, feeling kids finally have a voice in the national discussion of autism to break down another barrier to getting a date: society frowning on them. Jack Robison and Kirsten Lindsmith have sparked the kind of outpouring of emotion that the myth makers wouldn't expect from kids on the spectrum.
But emotional these kids have been. They want the world to know they don't love other people "despite" their autism. They just plain love other people. It's an important -- albeit difficult to grasp -- distinction. But kids with autism are trying to show the world that the syndrome may affect much of what they do, but that doesn't mean it's a "problem." As one high schooler said:
Love is a really hard thing to accomplish, maybe even the hardest thing in the world to achieve, and it is hard for everybody. It doesn't matter if you are autistic or not. If anything, this article shows trials and tribulations that befall every relationship of society.
More from The Stir: Adorable Little Girl Doesn't Think Down Syndrome Makes Her Brother Different (VIDEO)
His point is well taken. Love and relationships are HARD. Being on the autism spectrum may make for complications in dating. But really, other folks have complications too. We just have different hurdles. Depression. A rough childhood. Divorced parents. Fear of commitment. Falling in love too easily. Falling out of love to easily. The sky is the limit.
It doesn't mean the rest of us don't date. So why not kids with autism? Why don't they deserve the same chance to go out and feel that heady rush of hormones and the sweet thrill of a first kiss?
I'm glad the world is getting to know more about autism for the sakes of all these kids. The more examples out there of these kids growing up and doing "normal" stuff, the better. But what we need as a society is to learn the truth about autism, not truck in myths and half-truths. First lesson? Love is not a foreign concept for kids with autism.
What's the most pervasive myth about autism you've encountered?

"The evolutionary theory of land rights as applied to Sub-Saharan Africa: a critical assessment"
The evolutionary theory of land rights can be considered the dominant framework of analysis used by mainstream economists to assess the land tenure situation in developing countries, and to make predictions about its evolution. A central tenet of this theory is that under the joint impact of increasing population pressure and market integration, land rights spontaneously evolve towards rising individualization and that this evolution eventually leads rights holders to press for the creation of duly formalized private property rights — a demand to which the state will have an incentive to respond. This article looks critically at the relevance of the evolutionary theory of land rights as currently applied to Sub-Saharan Africa. In particular, the question of whether the establishment of private property rights is an advisable structural reform in the present circumstances is examined, in the light of evidence accumulated so far. It will be argued that most of the beneficial effects usually ascribed to such a reform are grossly over-estimated and that, given its high cost, it is generally advisable to look for more appropriate solutions that rely on existing informal mechanisms at community level.

"We are very excited to be teaming up in the support of the Children's Advocacy Center," said head coach Tony Skole. "Our program has always been involved with the youth of our community, and this is for an outstanding cause that we are proud to be associated with."
"It is a great opportunity to increase awareness regarding the unspeakable crime of child abuse," said Sara Hacker, marketing and promotions coordinator of ETSU athletics. "It shouldn't hurt to be a child."
Gates open at 1 p.m. and there will be free admission for all children, pre-game tours of Cardinal Park, a meet-and-greet session with the players, a postgame balloon launch, games, prizes and other family-oriented activities.
"ETSU athletics is committed to improving life in our regions, and we are honored to participate in this most worthy cause," said Amber Birdwell, education training coordinator for ETSU athletics. "Baseball Blue Day is not only a great opportunity for us to show our support for Child Abuse Prevention Month, but also a great time to build relationships with our families and communities."
For more information about the day and the center's work, call the center at 926-6528 or visit www.childrensadvocacycenter.net.
So fans please remember to wear blue to the ball park to show support for your ETSU Bucs and for this great cause. Please visit www.ETSUBucs.com for more information on ETSU baseball and all other Buccaneer athletic news.

The units range in elevation from 550 feet above sea level at the Columbia River on the east, to 3,200 feet in the northwest corner (a distance of some 10 miles).
The northernmost Quilomene unit is bordered on the north by the Colockum Wildlife Area. The Quilomene Creek basin lies in the dry, shrub-steppe habitat along the Columbia River northeast of Ellensburg. The similar Whiskey Dick Creek basin lies south of the Quilomene. Flows remain fairly constant due to the springs scattered throughout the drainage. Quilomene Creek, Whiskey Dick Creek, and some of their tributaries provide habitat for resident trout. Steelhead have been documented in Quilomene Creek.
Vegetation is mostly shrub steppe, mostly sagebrush and bitterbrush mixed with bunchgrasses. Streams and springs provide narrow bands of riparian habitat. Wildlife use is diverse, including elk, deer, bighorn sheep, sage grouse, turkey, quail, and a myriad of small mammals, neo-tropical/upland birds, raptors, and reptiles. There are numerous streams with resident trout. Some streams historically had anadromous stocks that are currently federally listed. WDFW and other state and federal agencies are actively pursuing the removal of barriers from these streams to re-establish anadromous fish use. Hunting, fishing, camping and wildlife watching are all popular.
Fire closures extended for restoration
Seasonal Closure
Whiskey Dick Wildlife Area is closed to motor vehicles Feb. 1 through April 30 to protect wintering elk from disturbance, and in turn reduce elk damage to adjacent private lands.

All-New 2014 Bentley Flying Spur Unveiled
Today, we finally got our first look of the 2014 Bentley Flying Spur, set to make its global debut at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show next month. The new Flying Spur features Bentley's traditional styling cues with contemporary details. Sharp feature lines highlight the muscular rear of the car, while dipped headlights and taillights emphasize the front and rear profiles. "Bentley's new Flying Spur is the ultimate luxury performance sedan. Our engineers have worked tirelessly to ensure that the Flying Spur is the perfect combination of power, comfort, refinement, and hand-crafted quality," said Chairman and Chief Executive of Bentley, Dr. Wolfgang Schreiber. With the release of the new Flying Spur comes an all-new character design for Bentley's performance sedan. It features a lower and wider appearance, with slight curves and sharp lines. With the signature Bentley motif, the front fenders feature a new wing vent, with an additional feature line running from the front wheel to the rear bumper.The new exterior design, precise material selections, and manufacturing process have enabled the new Flying Spur to shine on the road. This large luxury sedan, thanks to its new sleek design, has great aerodynamic properties, giving it an overall drag coefficient of 0.29. With the new body structure, the Flying Spur is also 110 pounds lighter than the previous edition, despite the refinement changes and a stronger overall structure. The all-new Flying Spur has been given a technological upgrade in the form of a high resolution 8-inch touch-screen interface, complete with Bentley's satellite navigation system and Bluetooth connectivity. The luxury sedan's Balanced Mode Radiator technology offers optimum sound clarity and frequency range, along with the ability to play music from a CD, DVD, SD car, iPod, or an on-board hard drive. Even those in the back seat have access to the infotainment technology. Each rear passenger can stream media and view separate content. With Bentley's most powerful engine, the Flying Spur is equipped with the 6.0 liter, twin turbocharged, 48-valve W12, which delivers 616 horsepower. This engine has recently undergone a complete upgrade to improve torque management, turbocharger control, drivability, and emissions performance. The transmission feeds power to all four wheels, with a standard torque split of 60 percent to the rear and 40 percent to the front. The new Flying Spur's drivetrain delivers optimal grip, regardless of road or weather conditions, enabling the driver to have the assurance that the can use the car's torque and power in a dependable manner in almost any circumstance. The Flying Spur is built to the customer's specifications, as is the entire Bentley fleet. With a range of seventeen standard paint colors, the new luxury sedan features a new color edition, Dark Cashmere. Another addition to the paint range is Damson, a color inspired by the purple diamond, with the optional matching hide color. Customers can also chose the Mulliner Driving Specification, which includes five additional hide choices that expands the number to seventeen, and adds another five wood veneers. Traditional diamond quilting is added to the door handles and seats, with leather headlining and embroidered Bentley wings in the headrests. Source: Bentley

BJ Baldwin Partners with Red Kap for General Tire Mint 400Posted in News on March 14, 2014
Red Kap, the world's largest automotive apparel manufacturer, has signed Baja off-road racing champion "Ballistic" BJ Baldwin and just in time for this weekend's big race in Las Vegas. Baldwin will debut the Red Kap logo on his race truck affectionately referred to as "Fedor" at the 2014 General Tire Mint 400 race this weekend. The Baldwin Motorsports crew will be outfitted with select Red Kap apparel for the 2014 race season so you can be sure to find the Baldwin Motorsports crew racing and wrenching in the desert while wearing some of Red Kap's latest cuts.
Red Kap's plan is to remain the leader of automotive apparel so they are gearing up for an intriguing brand launch in 2014 and 2015 so it's no surprise they would sign one of the biggest names in off-road racing. Good, Bad or indifferent, you can always rest assured that Baldwin will end up at the forefront of off-road racing's biggest news stories.
"BJ Baldwin is a passionate, talented off-road racer with a driven spirit to perform. His ambitious character and unique style makes him a natural fit to represent the Red Kap brand. As we continue to focus on the development of performance features specifically for the automotive industry, we are excited to have Baldwin Motorsports put our products to the test in the world of off-road racing." said Chris Holcombe, Red Kap's Vice President and General Manager of Distributor Brands.
Baldwin's racing record has earned him two consecutive Baja 1000 wins as well as a few SCORE championships (2013, 2012, 2009), BITD championship and even a King of the Desert title. Baldwin has also earned himself a Mint 400 win, as well as first place finishes in the SCORE Baja 500, San Felipe 250, BITD Silver State 300, Parker 425 and the Bluewater Desert Challenge.
"This year is going to be a great race season for Baldwin Motorsports. I have been training all year preparing for this season and my team is excited to add Red Kap to our team." said BJ Baldwin, Monster Energy Trophy Truck Racer.
With any luck, Baldwin might be able to race through the field of 55 Trophy Trucks but he'll have his work cut out for him this weekend especially considering he'll have to make it past Robby Gordon who qualified inside the Top 3 spots. One thing's for sure, if the Baldwin Motorsports crew can manage a win, they'll be able to celebrate in their newfound threads courtesy of Red Kap.

|Home >> Ask Olympus: Tips for shooting portraits
Do you have any tips for shooting portraits?
Quality portraits can be made with any camera. There are basically three types of portraits: formal, environmental and candid.
The formal portrait is a posed and carefully arranged photo of an individual or group that emphasizes their best qualities. It is usually shot in a controlled environment such as a studio, with attention to detail.
The environmental portrait is shot in a setting that tells the viewer something about the subject's interests – their profession or hobbies. Like the formal portrait it can be posed and carefully arranged.
The candid portrait is usually shot as if the subject was unaware they were being photographed. An example would be portraits taken while someone is being interviewed.
Here are some tips to help you make quality portraits.
With formal portraits it is best to have a neutral background – a wall or a fabric drop. If you use a fabric drop, be sure it is ironed. It can be draped to make folds for dramatic effect. The background in the environmental portrait is, of course, the environment. Pay attention to the placement of accessories in the shot. Candid portraits read better if the background is free of detail or out of focus.
If you don't have lots of lighting equipment, the best light for portraiture is a soft window light from a window facing away from the sun. In the early days of photography, portraitists had a large window facing north in their studios so they could take advantage of the "north light" – a technique still widely used. Place your subject in a position so that they are lit by this soft light. You can use a large white poster board or sheet on the shadow side of their face to bounce fill light into the shadows. Remember to turn off the flash.
If you are doing a head and shoulders portrait, it is best to zoom the lens out and move back. Using a wide or normal focal length lens makes the face look bloated, whereas a telephoto lens keeps the facial features in proportion. Using a longer focal length also blurs out background detail. Three quarter length and group shots don't require a long focal length, because the distance between the subject and the camera is greater and the proportions of their features look normal.
Confer with the subject prior to the sitting. Have clothing options of light and dark clothes and avoid prints, which may make the image busy. A fan off-camera can make hair more lively. Make the subject comfortable and involve them in the process. Try various poses. If the subject wears glasses be aware of the reflections in the glasses and have the subject move their head to better position the reflections.
Everybody appreciates a little "magic" from post-processing. Be aware of glare on the forehead, chin and the tip of the nose and take them out or reduce their brightness in post-processing.
Depending on your camera, you may have features that lend themselves to portraiture. There are PORTRAIT Scene modes and some cameras have a BEAUTY shooting mode that finds a person's face and gives the skin a smooth look. In the Playback menu, your camera might have a BEAUTY FIX function. BEAUTY FIX has four options for "retouching" a portrait in-camera.
- ALL – Applies all of the function below at once.
- CLEAR SKIN – Makes skin look smooth. The levels are SOFT, AVG, and HARD.
- SPARKLE EYE – Slightly enlarges the catch light in the eye.
- DRAMATIC EYE – Slightly dilates the pupil.
