When To Wash: Sheets - weekly Bras - every 3 wearings Underwear - after each use Blankets - once every three months Shirts - after each use Jeans - after 3 wearings Slacks - after 2 wearings Pants - after 2 wearings Sweaters = after 3 wearings Socks - definitely after each use As You Sort: Turn jeans inside out Zip pants Un-bunch socks Tie draw strings Empty pockets Unroll cuffs How To Wash Clothes... Imagine snuggling with a freshly laundered cotton t-shirt….warm and soft. It's a cozy pleasant moment. Then flash to removing your favorite piece of clothing from the washer or dryer ruined. No one wants to go through that experience, again. That's why caring for clothing is so important. It's simple once you know the basics. It's best to begin with reviewing the manufacturer's care label. Sort Clothes... Start by sorting clothing into batches. One for whites, one for darks, one for light colors and the other for delicate fabrics like sweaters and undergarments. Be sure check to see if they are colorfast. If you're unsure, dampen a small area in an unseen area like the inseam, wait a few moments and dab with a clean white cloth or paper towel to see if the color transfers. If it does, launder it separately; include an old white sock or hankie until it emerges untainted. Inspect Clothes... Now, don't throw everything into the washer drum just yet…Check clothes for loose hems, seams or buttons. Be sure to repair it or it will become worse. Inspect clothes for stains. Attempt to identify the stain and apply a stain remover solution. GrabGreen suggests using their stain specific stain removers, Grab & Dab, regardless of which stain solution you choose follow stain manufacturer's instructions. And, pre-soak heavily soiled clothing for 20 to 30 minutes before washing. Select Detergent and Wash... You're just about ready to put the clothing into the washing machine. Select the appropriate laundry detergent based on the batch type; GrabGreen suggests using GrabGreen's 3-in-1 Laundry Detergent for all color loads, Delicate Laundry Detergent for delicate fabrics, and Bleach Alternative for removing stains and brightening whites. Be sure to add the recommended amounts for your batch size of your preferred detergent first, then pile in the clothes. Place clothes loosely and evenly in the wash machine. Once the washing cycle is complete, check stains that were treated and repeat as necessary. Stain removal success is dependent on the type of stain and the freshness. Drying Clothes... Prior to adding everything to the dryer, review the manufacturer's care label of the clothing you are not sure of. Shake out clothes that have been twisted during the wash cycle and place in dryer. Do not overload dryer or over dry clothing; shrinkage is caused by heat from either the washer or dryer. High heat and over drying is hard on clothing and wastes energy. Removing clothing before it's too dry reduces wrinkles and wear & tear making them last longer. If this step isn't efficient enough to avoid wrinkles, shake out and iron right out of the dryer. To save ironing time and energy, immediately iron. The wrinkles haven't set yet and the clothing is easier to iron. Hanging clothes right out of the dryer can eliminate the need to iron them. GrabGreen suggests using an eco-friendly hanger which is made of environmentally friendly paper. Clothing line or hanging rack for tumble-dried clothing is the most gentle method and is best to conserve energy. Dryer Settings... Select the appropriate setting for your clothing by reviewing the manufacturer's care label. Permanent Press is often a generally a good choice. Adding a GrabGreen Wet Dryer Cloth before drying reduces static cling and adds softness to your clothing. Maintenance... Lastly, don't forget to dispose of the lint in your dryer. Did you know some people collect dryer lint to create paper? How To Handwash Clothes... Lengthen the life of your sweaters, lingerie and silks by hand washing them. You can use a Delicate Laundry Pod. Start by selecting a delicate detergent, GrabGreen suggests GrabGreen's Delicate Laundry Detergent with naturally-derived ingredients. Fill sink or basin with luke-warm water; be sure not to overfill. Add amount suggested by manufacturer. For Lingerie and Silks... Set washer settings to delicate and cold water. Grab and toss in one Delicate Laundry Detergent pod and pile in clothing. Gently transfer clothes to a clean white towel. And, lay flat till dry. For Sweaters... Before washing, measure sweater in three places: Under arm to under arm, shoulder to shoulder, and across the bottom. Jot down the measurements, you'll use these to shape your sweater after washing. Always wash one sweater at a time. But while you're in the mode of hand washing, consider washing other items needing special attention. Begin by submerging clothing into cold water. Swish it about and gently massage in suds. Let it soak for a few minutes, unless detergent specifies differently. Do not twist or wring clothing. Drain water and rinse with water (no soap), and continue until water runs clear. Gently press clothing to remove excess water and then transfer to a flat clean white towel. Roll sweater in towel while gently squeezing to remove excess water and repeat with a second clean white towel. The drying process can take several hours so be sure to select a location to place your sweater where it won't be disturbed. Using a third towel, lay out and reshape sweater using the measurements recorded before washing. About an hour later, turn over and transfer sweater to another dry clean towel. Some dryers have a mesh rack which allows warm air to circulate around the sweater. If your sweater has wrinkles, run a warm iron or a handheld steamer over them. How To Set Washer and Dryer Settings... Washer Settings... Save energy, time and your clothes by setting the appropriate wash time and setting. For the most part, a short six minute wash time is ideal… Yes, only six minutes. Often people over wash their clothes, they select the dial to regular not realizing this setting is over washing and reducing the life span of their clothes. Use the regular setting for sturdy or heavy cottons and very dirty clothing. The Permanent Press cycle is usually a good general selection. It cools down the heat of the clothing in the spin cycle by adding cool water; reducing fabric wrinkles. The Delicate cycle is for light weight, sheer, lacy and loosely woven materials. It agitates and spins slowly simulating hand washing. Dryer Settings... Select the appropriate setting for your clothing by reviewing the manufacturer's care label. Permanent Press is often a generally a good choice. Adding a GrabGreen Wet Dryer Cloth before drying reduces static cling and adds softness to your clothing. How To Iron Clothes... Let's start with making sure you have a stable ironing board covered with a clean ironing pad and a good quality iron. GrabGreen prefers an iron that releases a good amount of steam and an adjustable temperature dial. Be prepared by keeping a pressing cloth handy in case you're ironing wool or shiny surface fabrics and a spray bottle filled with water. When choosing a temperature setting, begin with the lower range and increase as needed. GrabGreen recommends ironing when the clothes are right out of the dryer and are still a bit damp. If the clothing is not, spray a good amount of water on both sides of the clothing, this will make ironing easier and faster. And, always keep the iron moving. Frequently Asked Questions: Why did GrabGreen name their laundry detergent 3-in-1 Laundry Detergent? The 3-in-1 Laundry Detergent incorporates three popular products – detergent, fabric softener and stain removers. Why are GrabGreen's detergents and laundry add-ins packaged in a pouch? The pouch helps GrabGreen reduce waste. GrabGreen's pouches contain less plastic than traditional big plastic jugs and since they're not using those heavy liquid detergent jugs, there's much less energy wasted on transporting the products. Are GrabGreen's detergent products septic safe? Absolutely, yes. How are GrabGreen's laundry pods easy to use? Simply grab & toss a pod into the washer drum...don't get confused between the washer drum the detergent dispenser, all you need to do is toss the pod into the washer drum along with your clothes. No mess? How is that possible? GrabGreen's 3-in-1 Laundry Detergent is pre-measured and packaged in water soluble film, eliminating dripping liquid detergent mess and avoiding wasteful over-pours. Simply said, there's no spilling, no mess, no clean up. How does GrabGreen reduce waste? GrabGreen takes every opportunity to reduce waste, as an example, their 3-in-1 Laundry Detergent is made of powder which means GrabGreen doesn't add water to their cleaning formula unlike liquid detergents which add up to 2/3 water. And since GrabGreen formulated a highly concentrated powder, there's less weight and volume, which equates to less energy waste in transporting. As an example, to transport 1 truck of 670,000 loads of powder detergent, it would take 2 and ½ trucks to transport the same amount of liquid detergent. Less storage space? How do you figure? GrabGreen's product packaging is 98% less than big heavy liquid detergent jugs and their formulas are highly concentrated so you don't need to use as much…all in all, GrabGreen products are smaller in size and take up less storage space. How are GrabGreen products easy to carry? Little pouches mean less to carry, no more "lug-a-jug" to your laundry room, no more "lift-a-jug" to your laundry cabinet. Can GrabGreen's pods be used in cold water? Yes. The pod can easily dissolve in cold water. When a pod is dropped in 50 degrees cold water, the detergent is completely released within 10 seconds with mild agitation. What exactly does "naturally-derived ingredients" mean? It means GrabGreen uses organic and mineral based ingredients - all are derived from nature-based sources. What does GrabGreen mean exactly when they say their products are eco-friendly? GrabGreen products are made of naturally derived ingredients, are non-toxic and free of phosphates, fillers, fragrance, chlorine, dyes and NPE. And GrabGreen products are absolutely not tested on animals or contain animal additives. GrabGreen's eco-profile extends beyond their solutions to their packaging. GrabGreen makes sure their products are as eco-friendly as possible by using post consumer resins, recyclable and biodegradable materials. GrabGreen focuses on creative ways to avoid wasteful packaging without compromising design or quality. What does GrabGreen mean by responsible? GrabGreen's packaging is eco-friendly since they use post-consumer recycled, recyclable and biodegradable materials. I have sensitive skin. Will GrabGreen's products work for me? GrabGreen's products can be safer for people who suffer from allergies, asthma, and multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS), than products that are produced with highly toxic chemicals. GrabGreen adds no fragrances or dyes and most of their liquid products are soybean or canola oil based, which minimizes the risk of an adverse reaction. Are GrabGreen products Kosher? No, but Grab Green is working on it. Are the pods biodegradable? Yes. The pods are made with water-soluble film, which is fully biodegradable in water and has no negative effects on the water system. The water-soluble film does not open – the film and powder concentrate will fully dissolve in the water within 5 seconds. Do GrabGreen products have dyes? None. Zero. Nada. Are any of the ingredients or products tested on animals? GrabGreen products are completely animal cruel free -- they wouldn't even think of testing their products on animals. Why are GrabGreen products fragrance free? Those who suffer from allergies are highly sensitive to fragrances so GrabGreen decided to omit them. You can add your own scents by simply adding a couple of drops of your favorite essential oils. GrabGreen Story Before I became a mother, I didn't give much thought to the kinds of cleaning products I used in my home. My laundry detergent left my clothes clean and fresh-smelling, and that was all I really cared about. But after my two daughters came along, I learned about the toxic and irritating chemicals in most commercially available laundry products and I decided that if I couldn't buy the safe products I wanted to use on my children's clothing, I would have to make them myself. After a lot of research and experimentation, a few major logistical hurdles and delaying the project for a few years, I decided to dive in headfirst and contacted all the organic chemists I could find who might be able to help me. Before long, I was actually doing it - creating a full line of laundry and home cleaning products that were effective and safe for families. It's been a great journey so far, from making homemade detergent in my kitchen to a full line of environmentally friendly cleaning products. GrabGreen's future is looking great and they plan to continue creating new products that make cleaning safe and convenient. My goal for GrabGreen is to help you have not just a happy home, but a healthy and safe one as well. GrabGreen's Philosophy GrabGreen is founded on the philosophy of creating a new eco-friendly approach to how consumers experience and solve fabric care dilemmas. GrabGreen has masterfully formulated solutions while simplifying applications of those solutions. Special attention has been given to simplifying the usage, minimizing waste and selecting the most natural and effective ingredients possible. Science Behind the Brand You can trust the organic chemists and formulators of GrabGreen's products who have more than 25 years of experience. GrabGreen's chemists have a great passion in exploring the latest ingredient technology and environmental updates, allowing GrabGreen to apply this knowledge to their formulations. Simplifying Things GrabGreen puts themselves in their own shoes when it comes to convenience and service, by asking themsekves what things could they offer to simplify laundry chores. Then they asked themselves, what pains do they experience when purchasing eco-friendly and laundry care products…this question had a lot of answers. The most important answer was excellent service. GrabGreen's team is dedicated to helping you make a difference in the health of your family and the earth with simple product choices at home. They know the ingredients of each product, the benefits, why GrabGreen products are safer than other products and have them delivered right to your door.

IntroductionThere have been a number of reviews of Peppermint 3 already so I am somewhat behind the pace with this review.
I wrote a review about Peppermint 2 back in February but it didn't really contain all that much information except to say that Peppermint utilises the idea of cloud computing and wraps it up to make it look like you are running a local application.
As we have moved on a version I thought I'd have another look especially as the reviews have been mainly positive.
For this review I decided to do a full install to my Samsung R20 laptop alongside the Zorin 6 that is already there. The other reviews I have read have either been live reviews or were performed on a virtual machine.
So with the USB drive in I booted up the system and a blank canvas appears with just a small taskbar (LXDE) at the bottom.
The installation
I will race through the installation as I'm sure you have all done this before and it is a fairly easy process. Step 1 - choose your language.
Step 6 - Choose your keyboard settings.
Step 8 - Install.
The partitions were partitioned based on the settings in step 4 and the files were copied across and installed.
Peppermint 3 - The reviewWhen I rebooted I was presented with a screen similar to the one in the live session except there was obviously no install icon anymore.
Setting up the internet was easy. My wireless card was found straight away and I was able to connect to both my Orange broadband and the Three mobile broadband.
As I had checked the box that installs the third party software as part of the install routine flash should work straight away. The easiest way to test this is to go to Youtube and see what happens.
As you can see from the image of Usain Bolt above there was no issue with regards to running Flash.
Peppermint is sparse when it comes to providing applications. It is not only marketed as a lightweight distribution it is marketed as a distribution where the cloud meets the desktop.
Some applications are necessary however and out of the box you get disk utility, a file manager, a calculator, terminal, text editor, screen grabber, an IRC client, a music player and a media player.
By default you get Chromium installed as the default browser. As this is my favourite browser I obviously think this is good.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1101525). After installing the missing plugins I had to restart Guayadeque and then it played the MP3s perfectly.
So what about office software? Well this is where the web meets the desktop. Peppermint 3 runs GWOffice as the office suite.
I tried this out and the first thing I noticed was that I had to log in twice to create a spreadsheet but if I ticked the box to keep me logged in within the site specific browser (SSB) which runs GWOffice then on a subsequent start of the GWOffice applications I will not be asked for the log in details twice. It is obviously a choice thing whether you like to stay logged into your Google account on your computer or not. Personally I like to log out.
The idea of the SSB is that you can visit sites that provide web applications and turn them into what appears to be a normal desktop application.
To add an application simply enter the URL to the site, the name of the application, which menu group you wish the application to appear under and the icon you would like to use to represent the application.
There are thousands of games available to play online and these are perfect for converting into SSB applications. For instance I have added Lemmings to the games section of my installation. (http://www.elizium.nu/scripts/lemmings/)
Creating SSBs is very simple. I was concerned about how popups and navigation would work but having created about 20 applications I am yet to find an issue.
The BBC website and Sky websites are perfect because you can turn live feeds into small applications.
The BBC site lets you watch TV but then choose different channels by clicking icons at the bottom of the screen.
All in all my impressions of Peppermint 3 are positive. I like the minimalist approach because even if I don't want to use web based applications I have a fairly clean slate in which to start installing the applications I need and there is the software manager and Synaptic Package Manager available should I need to do this.
I think that there could be a fuller release of Peppermint with more examples of the Site Specific Browser in action. It takes up virtually no space and no memory so why not include a dozen or so games and a few more applications such as Youtube and Twitter.
I don't know if there are legal reasons why Peppermint can't provide more links but there could be a small application with a list of sites to make it easier to create SSB applications.
There is the small issue with the GStreamer plugins that prevents MP3s from playing and for new users this would be annoying. It might be a good idea for Peppermint to provide an SSB for Spotify or one of the other streaming music services. It would be a good way of monetizing the product.
Finally it probably goes without saying that if you are going to use Peppermint 3 in the way it was intended then you obviously need a persistent internet connection to use the applications.
Have you used Peppermint LINUX? What are your views?
Thanks for reading.

Dennis Hopper: Rennaissance Rebel
Once spurned by Hollywood and nearly destroyed by drugs, Dennis Hopper has resurrected his life and his art.
(continued from page 9)
-- "Ballad of Easy Rider," by Roger McGuinn of The Byrds
My last thought was, 'Nobody lives through this.'"
There is no doubt that Dennis Hopper entertained that notion on more than a few occasions during his decades of excess.
But Hopper, seated in the loft office of his ultramodern home in Venice Beach, California, is recalling a day two years ago when he, his young son, Henry, and two buddies were in Jamaica, heading to a golf course to play a few holes. As they drove through a small village, a speeding truck barreled head-on into their car.
Hopper's friends were badly injured in the crash -- broken legs, head traumas -- but Hopper climbed out of the passenger seat without a scratch. He pulled Henry, now 10 years old, from the backseat, covered in splattered blood, also eerily unhurt.
"At that point, I really thought, maybe there is a force looking out for me, because I can't figure out how we survived," Hopper says, shaking his head in amazement as he puffs on a Punch cigar.
There are those who can't figure out how Hopper, 64, now a sober, successful actor, director and internationally acclaimed artist, managed to live through the wild and crazy sex, drugs and rock and roll era.
"And there are probably a lot more people who hoped I wouldn't," Hopper says, laughing a milder version of his infamous cackle.
Hopper has been reincarnated from a brash young actor in the '50s, to a rebel hippie filmmaker in the '60s, to a drug-addled industry pariah in the '70s. Hopper hit rock bottom in the mid-'80s, when, crazed from cocaine psychosis, he was found by police, naked and hiding in a Mexican jungle.
His love life has been equally chaotic. Hopper is now happily married to his fifth wife, Victoria Cane Duffy. One marriage to The Mamas and the Papas singer Michelle Phillips in 1970 lasted just eight days. Hopper calls those eight days "a great honeymoon."
On this clear-skied California morning, Hopper looks trim, toned and healthy. Nattily dressed in a well-cut gray suit, his swept-back silver hair and goatee giving him an air of European distinction, Hopper speaks honestly about his recovery. His blue eyes, chilling in his many villainous film roles, are friendly, intelligent and crystal clear.
"I've been sober now for 18 years," Hopper says. "With all the drugs, psychedelics and narcotics I did, I was [really] an alcoholic. Honestly, I only used to do cocaine so I could sober up and drink more. My last five years of drinking was a nightmare. I was drinking a half-gallon of rum with a fifth of rum on the side, in case I ran out, 28 beers a day, and three grams of cocaine just to keep me moving around. And I thought I was doing fine because I wasn't crawling around drunk on the floor."
Hopper has surprised everyone with the resilience of his spirit and the depth of his talent, not to mention the recuperative powers of his flesh.
Best known for writing, directing and acting in Easy Rider, the award-winning seminal '60s film, the actor has amassed an astonishing body of work (more than 120 films) in the past six decades, appearing in Rebel Without a Cause, Giant, Apocalypse Now and Blue Velvet, among others.
Since becoming sober in the '80s, Hopper has slowly carved out an impressive career playing award-winning quirky roles in small, offbeat pictures such as True Romance, River's Edge, Straight to Hell, Paris Trout, Red Rock West and Basquiat.
He's also starred in big-budget Hollywood fare, playing a mad bomber in Jan de Bont's worldwide hit Speed with Keanu Reeves and a demented one-eyed villain opposite Kevin Costner in Waterworld.
Yet, despite his hundreds of memorable roles, it's Hopper's Billy in Easy Rider, riding along life's lonely highway, his buckskin jacket flapping in the wind as he defiantly flips the bird at the establishment, that is forever etched into America's collective subconscious.
In the mid-'60s, Hopper, like many young people, was quickly swept up in the counterculture's revolution; taking part in political protests for free speech and integration. It was sex, and drugs and rock and roll. And more drugs. A lot more drugs.
"Back in those days, we were all like guinea pigs," Hopper recalls. "We were always waiting for the next new drug. It was like, 'Hey, gimme some of that!'"
Pot was prevalent and Hopper began experimenting with LSD while acting in and working as an assistant director on a low-budget film called The Trip (1967), written by a young unknown screenwriter named Jack Nicholson and starring a newcomer named Peter Fonda.
Hopper, Fonda and Nicholson quickly became friends. When Fonda and Hopper hatched an idea for a film about the spirit of the '60s, Easy Rider was born. The movie would become the Peace and Love Generation's version of Homer's The Odyssey.
Hopper wrote, directed and starred in the mythic movie about two longhaired small-time drug dealers' road trip to self-discovery as they rode their Harleys across a country splintered by prejudice and paranoia.
Making the $340,000 film was far from a lovefest. By all reports, it was a troubled set with taut tempers and arguments often sparked by an excessive intake of drink and drugs.
"I was introduced to Dennis by Nicholson, who told me, 'You'll finally have someone to drink with you,'" remembers Paul Lewis, Easy Rider's production manager. "Of course, Dennis did everything else as well. He was a total maniac but he never stopped the creative process, no matter what craziness went on."
Easy Rider opened in 1969 to lines around the block. "The '60s were almost over when Easy Rider came out," Hopper recalls. "But Hollywood had never addressed the '60s, drugs, free love, acid, communes. They were still making movies like Pillow Talk. Young people had stopped going to the movies. They went to love-ins in Golden Gate Park with 80,000 people dropping acid. Finally, in Easy Rider, they saw themselves.
"It was an incredible moment," Hopper says, softly. "But that is all it was. A moment."
Easy Rider made cult heroes of its three stars, Nicholson, Hopper and Fonda. Hopper, Fonda and Terry Southern were nominated for an Academy Award for best original screenplay and Hopper won an award at the Cannes International Film Festival for best film by a new director.
While it received critical accolades and commercial success, the film created a rift that has never been healed. Bad blood still boils between Hopper and Fonda over authorship of the Easy Rider script, and Southern's widow claims that her deceased husband was the true scribe.
"Terry never wrote a word and did not even want his name on the film," Lewis says. "Dennis wrote that script and I should know because I spent 18 days in a car with him. Much of it even came from things that happened to us. There may have been editing and it came from an idea that Dennis and Peter had. The picture made a lot of money and so people started saying, 'Why aren't I making money?' It was all about greed."
The wound is deep and old and has left an ugly scar.
"Peter and I will never patch anything up. He has made my life so miserable," Hopper says. "He tried to take away the one thing I created -- Easy Rider. The story is partly his, but I wrote the screenplay and Terry Southern didn't write any of it. He even gave me his percentage of it.
"Peter and I talked out the script on a tennis court, and he and Terry were supposed to go off and write the screenplay," Hopper adds. "I went out with Paul Lewis and scouted locations, and when I called and asked, 'How's the script?' they had three pages. I went to New York, kicked them out of the office, hired a woman, dictated the script in 10 days. It wasn't a masterpiece but it was something so we could go make the movie."
Needless to say, Hopper isn't a fan of Easy Riders, Raging Bulls, a controversial and critically lauded book by former Premiere magazine editor Peter Biskind. The book, which chronicles the cinematic lives of American male filmmakers of the 1970s, includes a chapter on the making of Easy Rider.
"I picked it up but when I read my ex-brother-in-law and Peter's [Fonda] partner say I was 'the worst editor he ever saw' and Peter [Fonda] called me 'a fascist punk,' I put it down. That's enough. It's fucking pathetic," Hopper says. "When someone asked Jack [Nicholson] if he'd read it, he said, 'I don't read fiction.'"

- A CRS Review of 10 States: Home and Community-Based Services — States Seek to Change the Face of Long-Term Care: Indiana
- Many states have devoted significant efforts to respond to the desire for home and community-based care for persons with disabilities and their families. Nevertheless, financing of nursing home care, chiefly by Medicaid, still dominates most states' spending for long-term care today. To assist Congress in understanding issues that states face in providing long-term care services, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) undertook a study of 10 states in 2002. This report, one in a series of 10 state reports, presents background and analysis about long-term care in Indiana.
- Disaster Tax Relief for the Midwest
- The Midwestern Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2008 is intended to assist with the recovery from the severe weather that affected the Midwest during the summer of 2008. The Jobs, Energy, Families, and Disaster Relief Act of 2008 includes some similar provisions, but these are not limited to the Midwest disaster. The disaster relief in the three bills is similar to that provided to assist with the recovery from the 2005 hurricanes and the 2007 Kansas tornadoes. This report broadly discusses the disaster relief provisions in other relevant legislation.
- Indiana Emergency Management and Homeland Security Statutory Authorities Summarized
- This report is one of a series that profiles the emergency management and homeland security statutory authorities of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and three territories (American Samoa, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands). Each profile identifies the more significant elements of state statutes, generally as codified. This report focuses on the state of Indiana.

Trains that Passed in the Night
Trains that Passed in the Night: Railroad Photographs of O. Winston Link
Organized by Thomas H. Garver and produced in collaboration with the Center of Railroad Photography and Art in Madison, Wis. (www.railphoto-art.org), this exhibition features 36 framed, original prints signed by the photographer, O. Winston Link, a Brooklyn, N.Y., native. Link was a commercial photographer who became well-recognized for his complex images of factory and industrial plant interiors. For Link, the steam railroad was a vital ingredient to "the good life" in America, an essential part of the fabric of our lives. It is this quality-of life, not machinery-which he captures so artfully in his photographs.

One of the most interesting things to me was how Reggie was called out for his attitude and leadership issues. Remind you of anyone?Originally Posted by jermaine7fanThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show QuoteThis is from the premiere issue of ESPN ProBasketball... it is a NBA preview edition...
Indiana Pacers
Likely: 49-33
- Beating Spike Lee isn't good enough. The Pacers had their chance, but with the Bulls back and the Magic coming of age, it may be gone.
Heard the one about Larry Brown after winning his first NBA title?
Talking head: "Well, Larry, you're finally going to Disney World."
Brown: "Yeah, but the lines are sooooo lonnnngggg."
No longer than the Pacer coach's shopping list, which would make you think the league's most valuable vagabond was trying to patch together a squad in Vancouver, not trying to fine-tune for a championship. Mr. Morose actually has never been closer to contentment, because neither he nor this humble hoop hamlet has been this close to the NBA Finals.
But life with Larry is a roller coaster, and last year's journey, which ended with the Pacers playing like Mickey Mouse in the Magic Kingdom, reinforced Brown's always suspecious nature. His grief now is that the Pacers aren't getting any younger. A roster loaded for immediate gratification must reload, not only to go the final step, but to have a future.
Starting Five: New Imprint
Collectively, the nucleus is in ti's prime, but Mr. Prime Time Reggie Miller, at 30 the oldest starter, is among those who may have peaked. More commonly known for wearing out nets, Miller and his newly minted image-over-substance media persona are wearing Brown out. Like Danny Manning before him, Miller chafes Brown. The difference: Brown put up with Manning because he wasn't one-deminsional.
Now, trade rumors abound as GM Donnie Walsh considers extending Miller's $4 million-plusa year pact. Miller last season delivered six-year lows in five catagories and a career worst .462 shooting percentage. He couldn't - or wouldn't - create for himself or his mates, as real stars do.
In the process, this became Rik Smits' team. Long the fall guy, the 7'4" center became the go-to-guy with a career season in minutes (30.5 per game), points (17.9), and rebounds (7.7), though his board game still needs work. Without double-team all over Smits' low post presence, Miller might have been just a rumor.
If Dale Davis' shoulders can stay in place long enough, he may yet make the all-star team. He has all you want in a young power forward escept low-post polish. Small forward Derrick McKey remains the most overrated-underrated player in the league. Brown blew his horn at will last year, but unassuming McKey's modest numbers, while not indicative of his true value, beg for improvement.
The Bench: Running on Empty
A big chunk of a once-deep bench was chucked. Byron Scott, a straight-talking veteran who shadowed Miller's shooting range, was lost to the expansion draft. This time, even-more-over-the-hill 13-year vet Ricky Pierce and unproven second-year 'tweener Damon Bailey, the all-time Hoosier legend, spell Reggie.
The Pacers' 1994 first-round pick, Greg Minor, could have filled the holed, but he went to Boston as a free agent. Duane Ferrell was signed to back up McKey but went straight to Brown's doghouse. Now there's a crater behind KcKey since Sam Mitchell, relentless but limited, wasn't re-signed. So old-timer Eddie Johnson - fresh off a one-year stint in Greece - tries to fill the gap.
That means Antonio Davis, who missed nearly half the season with a herniated disk and rarely played with his rookie fervor, will agian be stuck playing out of position a backup center.
Haywood Workman, who defends like Brown wants but can't shoot or pass, is the backup playmaker. So the position resumes its annual shuffle, this time including first-round pick Travis Best, a shooter and creator from Georgia Tech, whose signing puts Walsh in double figures in point guards acquired over the past decade.
Intangibles: A Few Good Men
The Pacers' greatest strength has been their chemistry, and Walsh may have altered that winning dynamic. Departed veterans Scott, Mitchell, LaSalle Thompson, and Vern Fleming comprised the team's soul. Brown's favorite thing is developing young players, though young pros aren't always as receptive as college greshmen. So who will fill the leadership vacuum? Brown wants it most of all from Miller and Jackson. He maintaains Miller wants all of the trappings of celebrity but not the responsibility: Brown's saying it's time to walk the walk. At least Jackson can handle the coach's hounding. Brown may wear on players, but the consensus is he's up there with Pat Riley as the best coach in the NBA, and the team remains united behind him.
Lowdown: Maxed Out?
The Pacers blew their big chance. The window of opportunity cracked open when Michael went away and the Knicks got old, but now Michael is back and the Worm is with him - and the Magic have grown up.
A better year from the guards and improvement from Smits and the Davis boys makes this team really tough to beat. But realisticaly, the nucleus has maxed out; the Pacers need more cannons.
Guys to Watch:
Knick fans are still clinging to the fantasy that is Jackson had not been dealt, New York would have another banner hanging in the Garden. But Jackson didn't get the job done in a similar situation in Indiana last year. And he's a long way from his cocksure rookie season. There's a good chance that this is his last chance. And the Pacers go nowhere without him.
Missing Piece:
Indiana gets few easy baskets because the wings don't run and the backcourt can't press. That's why this team needs a commanding presence at the POINT who plays at both ends. Mark Jackson gives it another go, but if he's not the answer, this team will get a facelift.
Good News:
The Pacers were second in the conference behind Orlando with a 33-8 home record. Brown's contract is ironclad. If he stays through it, it'll be his longest stay with any team (six years). And he'll probably stay, since he's patched it up with brother Herb, now an assistant coach.
Bad News:
When trailing at the start of fourth quarter last year, the Pacers rallied to win only three times. Miller's scoring average has declined four of the past five seasons, from 24.6 in 1989-90 to 19.6 last season. No Pacer draft choice has had an impact since Dale Davis was selected four years ago.
Also funny how they make it sound like Jax had one year left in Indy if we didn't do well, when in fact he had 4 (and it could have been longer if not for God ).

SWS – In observance of National Minority Donor Awareness Day, OneLegacy, the non-profit organ and tissue recovery agency serving the greater Los Angeles area, and Donate Life California, the administrators of the statewide organ and tissue donor registry, called attention to the 49,000 minority individuals that account for 51 percent of the United States transplant waiting list.
In California more than two-thirds of the 20,249 Californians waiting desperately for the gift of life are Latino, African American, or Asian/Pacific Islander, and more than 40 percent of those waiting are here in the Southland. In addition, there are nearly 100,000 people of all ages, races, and religions in desperate need of life-saving organ transplants that may not come in time. Hundreds of thousands more are in need of tissue transplants to restore their health, mobility, and sight.
"Every year there are over 28,000 donors of all ethnic backgrounds and races who save the lives of thousands of people and provide tissue for over a million people. Last year alone, more than 10,000 minorities received organ transplants," said Ralph D. Sutton, OneLegacy's African American Community Development Coordinator. "Making a decision to be an organ, eye and tissue donor will help save thousands of lives that would otherwise be lost. To save these lives, the public is encouraged to visit www.donatelifecalifornia.org and determine the steps necessary to become a registered donor. The California organ and tissue registry is approaching the two million registration mark," he encouraged.
At the top of the list of minorities in need of organ transplants are African Americans followed by Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders and people of Multiracial decent. African Americans alone account for 27 percent of people on the national waiting list and 35 percent of those waiting for kidneys.
Though only 20 percent of the U.S. population and 23 percent of donors are minorities, they make up 51 percent of the national transplant waiting list. The high percentage is due to the fact that many of the conditions leading to the need for a transplant, such as diabetes and hypertension, occur with greater frequency among these populations.
Meanwhile, advocacy groups like OneLegacy are still trying to blast myths surrounding organ donation, like the fact that hospitals will not save lives in order to harvest body parts.
"One of the biggest fears that people have about organ donation is that their death will be hastened if they're identified as a donor," bioethicist Arthur Caplan of the University of Pennsylvania told the Associated Press last week.
On August 3, prosecutors charged transplant surgeon Hootan Roozrokh, 33, on July 31, with prescribing massive amounts of drugs in an attempt to hasten the death of 25-year-old Ruben Navarro, who was physically and mentally disabled.
Navarro's organs were never retrieved because he did not die within the time when they would be viable for transplantation.
The case, believed to be the first of its kind in the U.S., "sent a chill through the transplant community," the AP reported.
Despite that incident, said said Jackie Hancock, president of the National Foundation for Transplants, "By and large, physicians are upholding their oath,"
National Minority Donor Awareness Day is observed annually to increase awareness of organ donation among African American, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, Alaskan Native, Pacific Islander and Native American populations. The event also recognizes minority donors and their families. For more information visit www.onelegacy.org, to register visit www.donatelifecalifornia.org.

Gallery: The 2013 Pasadena Rose Parade
PASADENA - The Rose Queen and court had an unexpected escort for a 100-foot stretch of the Rose Parade route on Tuesday, as a man and his three mules abruptly walked onto Colorado Boulevard.
He said his name was Mule. He wore a tattered jacket held together by duct tape. His three mules carried all Mule's belongings in packs slung across their backs. They didn't have names, according to their owner.
"They're just mules," Mule said.
But the quartet had a purpose.
"You got all this glitz and nice presentation, but when you look at us people on the ground, we are dirty, we smell, but we are real," Mule said. "We just wanted to bring something real to the parade."
Mules said he left Arizona in February 2012 to march in the Rose Parade, walking a few miles each day. The final leg from San Diego to Pasadena took him a month to complete.
Mule entered the parade route at Colorado Boulevard and Lake Avenue right as the Rose Court float crossed the intersection. The smell of his mules and his constant shoveling of their dung captured the attention of the crowd, many of whom didn't know whether Mule was part of the show.
Mule kept the mule dung in a green bag. He said he didn't want to make a mess of the parade route.
Four Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department deputies surrounded Mule about 100 feet from where he entered the parade route. The deputies escorted Mule off the route.
Sheriff's officials said they won't press charges and that Mule didn't give them any trouble when asked to get himself and his mules off Colorado Boulevard.
But his hasty exit from the parade didn't dissuade Mule from completing his mission. Mule wants people to live in accord with nature. He operates a website, 3mules.com, which preaches about the benefits of natural living.
"To answer the most asked questions: Who are we? Where are we from? And where are we going? We are mules. We are from the outside. We live outside all day , every day. Where are we going? Nowhere, we're here- the outside, the web of life- the beautiful earth, a place like no other. We have come to this place-a place of golden sparkling light, a place for anybody and everybody. Give your faith, hope and energy to this place at which time you connect to it and receive the magic and endless possibility of infinity. As you walk in this place with these mules you spread the awareness that this beautiful earth like no other can only be protected by the way we live one day at a time," reads the text on the website.
The Rose Parade has been a magnet for fringe religious and political groups who want to deliver their message to mass audience. Mule is the latest in a long line of Rose Parade side shows. Christian groups evangelize before and after the parade with signs warning parade-goers to repent. The Occupy movement has twice used the parade to deliver its anti-corporate message.

For the life of me, I simply can't understand our GM's thought process in bringing in Ron Murray. This guy has been with 5 teams in 6 years, shoots 41% career (27% from the three), miserable A:TO ratio (actually less than 1 with the Pacers), and can't crack the starting lineup anywhere...and he'll be 29 this July.
The irony of it all is this...if he manages to help us win enough games to make the playoffs (and then of course we get knocked out by Detroit), our GM will have essentially traded a legitimate shot at OJ Mayo or Gordon for Ron Murray. Nice job once again.

Finally, one young girl asked, "What's a petticoat?"
"You know, a petticoat is a slip," I replied.
"What's a slip?" another girl ventured.
"Do any of you wear a camisole?" I asked. Many of them nodded. "Well, a slip is a long camisole except it comes down below your knees. We used to wear them when I was young so people couldn't see through our dresses." The angels exchanged glances among themselves, and I didn't bring up the subject again. I had marked myself a survivor of the age of dinosaurs and prayed that I would survive this whole experience, this inability of mine to say no when anyone asks me to direct a Christmas pageant.
The holidays are over now, and the angel halos and wings are put away for another year, as are the shepherds' staffs and wise men's gifts. But a few thoughts still reverberate in my memory. This year's experience has brought me once again to the reminder to always try, at least once a year, to connect with this younger generation. Yes, it's great to be with your grandchildren often or with the neighborhood children, but be sure to spend some concentrated time with teenagers. This is a great way to prevent a fossilization of attitude and to be reminded of how much you really don't know.
This year I learned that the world is still full of young people who are interested in making it a better place and that there are parents who will chauffeur them to help with this. I also learned there are still children who will hide from the "head shepherd" just before it's time to go onstage, just to give him grief. That "head" shepherd, by the way, was my loving husband, George. George, wielding his shepherd staff, had to deal with the other young shepherds who insisted on wrestling with each other or wheeling about in a wheelchair they found and just acting like "boys" in general as they awaited their cue. George's beard is now grayer, but his attorney's sense of justice has been broadened.
The female teenagers never did wear petticoats, but they did leave their Reeboks in the dressing room in favor of white socks, and the kindergartners still were so stunned by the spotlight that only two of them remembered the motions to "Away in a Manger." It was comforting to know that although much has changed, not much has changed. The petticoats are just shorter.

From American Rivers
1. San Joaquin River
Outdated water management and excessive diversions leave the river dry in stretches, threatening water quality, fish and wildlife, agriculture, and leaving communities vulnerable in the face of drought.
2. Upper Colorado River
The river's health, fish and wildlife, agriculture, and recreation are threatened by new proposed diversions and increasing water demands.
3. Middle Mississippi River
A proposed new levee would cut off the river from the floodplains that protects downstream communities from floodwaters and provide habitat for fish and wildlife.
4. Gila River
An unnecessary water diversion and pipeline would harm fish and wildlife, river health, and local economics dependent on outdoor recreation and tourism.
5. San Francisquito Creek
The 65-foot Searsville Dam blocks threatened steelhead from reaching habitat upstream, impairs water quality, and poses flooding risks for local communities.
6. South Fork Edisto River
Excessive agriculture withdrawals threaten the river's health and downstream water users, including other farmers.
7. White River (Colorado)
15,000 proposed new oil and gas wells in the region threaten to ruin clean drinking water and fish and wildlife habitat.
8. White River (Washington)
Salmon, steelhead, and bull trout populations are often killed at the unsafe and outdated Buckley Dam.
9. Haw River
Drinking water and recreation areas for more than one million people are threated by polluted runoff and wastewater.
10. Clearwater/Lochsa Rivers
The Wild and Scenic rivers' coldwater fisheries, scenery, and whitewater are threatened by industrialization that would bring huge megaloads bound for Canadian tar sands onto narrow roads beside the rivers.

and slip off skins. Cut in half, remove pits and slice if
desired. To prevent darkening, keep peeled fruit in
ascorbic acid solution. Prepare and boil a very light,
light, or medium syrup or pack peaches in water,
apple juice, or white grape juice. Raw packs make
poor quality peaches.
Hot pack In a large saucepan place drained
fruit in syrup, water, or juice and bring to boil. Fill
jars with hot fruit and cooking liquid, leaving ½-inch
headspace. Place halves in layers, cut side down.
Raw pack Fill jars with raw fruit, cut side down,

A BURNLEY spa is soaking up the praise after being named the best in the country at a prestigious awards ceremony.
The £4.5million Woodland Spa, part of the Crow Wood Leisure complex off the M65, won the title Day Spa of the Year at the prestigious Professional Beauty Awards 2014 — just 12 months after opening.
Spa manager Karen Ashworth travelled to London for the presentation ceremony with other staff.
She said: "We're delighted that our hard work, attention to detail and our philosophy has been recognised by this amazing award.
"We believe we're delivering the most luxurious and indulgent spa experience in the north of England.
"Our spa aims never to be pretentious and the welcome here is always warm and the luxury treatments simply divine."
The spa, which fought off competition from across the country, boasts one of Europe's largest hydrotherapy pools and a unique serenity pool.
The award comes as work on luxury new accommodation is taking place to provide three double bedrooms in addition to an apartment for up to eight people at Crow Wood.
Andrew Brown, managing director, said: "We're very proud of what we have created and we're very proud that we've created it here in Burnley. We're staunch supporters of the town and are pleased that we are helping to place Burnley in a positive light.
"We're also delighted to announce that work has begun on developing new luxury accommodation which will be open by June 2014."

Saw this bottle at an estate sale and loved it. Found out it was brewed and bottled in Edinburgh Scotland by Wm. Younger & Co. as depicted on the label. Label is not centered and is crooked as if placed on by hand. Having trouble finding out the year of it. If anyone has any information i would appreciate knowing so i'll have a better knowledge of it in my collection.

Being a bit of a whizz with spreadsheet packages such as Excel is a very important skill to possess for SEO's. The industry is becoming more and more data orientated thanks mainly to the great link analysis software that is now available in the marketplace from places such as SEOMoz, MajesticSEO and SEO Spyglass.
This series of blog posts is designed for webmasters to help analyse their backlink profiles and help carry out some basic competitor backlink analysis using Microsoft Excel.
Extracting the Domain Name from a URL
When using a link analysis tool such as Open Site Explorer you will inevitably return lots of line data. This can often be overwhelming especially if you are analysing an expansive list of backlink urls. The quickest way to return the domain name is to use the text to columns tool.
Simply highlight the URL's column and choose data and then text to columns.
Now using the Convert Text to Columns wizard choose delimited
And insert / into other under delimiters and select treat consecutive delimiters as one.
Click next and then finish, you will now have all your data split across several columns but more importantly you will now have your domains in one column. You can now use the remove duplicates tool to remove any repeated domain names so you now have a list of websites to monitor or target for new links.
Another way to do this is using the Excel text functions LEFT & FIND
The formula I use is =LEFT(A1, FIND("/",A1,8)) (assuming Cell A1 is the cell containing the URL)
This formula basically says find the first "/" in the URL, after letter 8, and return everything to the left of it.
I hope this post was useful and I'll be posting up some more Microsoft Excel SEO tips.

The Sarah Palin event at the Fairmont Hotel on April 30 keeps getting better and better. Just added — conservative talk show host Mike Gallagher will be the "MC." Mayor Tom Leppert will offer a welcome. And his office wishes I'd stop repeating that.
The evening benefits the non-existent Uptown Women's Center. The Palin4life Web site no longer claims to be a non-profit organization. We pointed out in our original post that it is not listed as a 501(c)(3) on the IRS Web site.
Uptown Women's Center still does claim to be a 501(c)(3), although it is not registered with the IRS as a non-profit organization. However, it may be operating under the non-profit status of a downtown anti-abortion organization. I know. They wish I wouldn't call them that.
Apparently the property they're threatening to buy on Fairmount Street will be a staging ground for anti-abortion activity in the Oak Lawn area.
Remember, tickets are $10,000 for one, $25,000 for two or $75,000 for four. I like the math. And it's not a legitimate tax deduction, since they're not a 501(c)(3), unless they're having people make the check out to some other organization.

Minor effective while working out of trouble
TAMPA, Fla. -- Mike Minor was far from perfect as he completed four scoreless innings in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Yankees at George M. Steinbrenner Field. But the Braves left-hander showed poise as he scattered three singles and pitched around two defensive miscues.
"I know I need to work on things," Minor said. "I felt like I left on a good note today. I felt like I had a better last inning than all of the other innings. It just felt better to me."
Minor pitched around leadoff singles in the first two innings and proved fortunate when Juan Rivera lined into a double play with two on and one out in the third inning. He retired each of the final three batters he faced after Jayson Nix reached second base to open the bottom of the fourth on a wind-blown fly ball that fell between Dan Uggla and Chris Johnson behind first base.
"It was good just to work out of things," Minor said. "There were a couple of balls that landed in nowhere land."
Minor, who posted a 2.21 ERA in his final 15 starts last year, has worked eight consecutive scoreless innings since allowing two runs in the first inning of his exhibition season debut against the Nationals on Feb. 26.
"I feel like my slider and curveball are way ahead of where they were last year at this time," Minor said. "I feel like they are almost at the same point they were at the end of last year."

TPWD Seeks Input on Proposed Waterfowl Seasons
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas waterfowlers will have the same hunting opportunities as last year, based on proposed federal framework that once again provide a standard season, with harvest restrictions on canvasback and pintail. Determining when those opportunities will occur is still up for discussion and consideration.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department will finalize the 2004-05 Statewide Migratory Bird Hunting Proclamation later this month, and department waterfowl program staff are seeking input from hunters during the weeks ahead as to how the season should fall.
According to federal guidelines, the general duck hunting seasons in Texas can only occur between Sept. 25, 2004 and Jan. 30, 2005. The state has 74 days to slice and dice to create seasons in the North and South Zones and 98 days in the High Plains Mallard Management Unit. The framework allows for a nine-day early teal season, which is set for Sept. 18-26.
In making its recommendations, TPWD takes into consideration calendar shifts to maximize weekend and holiday hunting opportunity, and factors in years of survey data on bird migration and hunter harvest. Following is a rundown of the TPWD recommendations being considered:
South Zone — TPWD recommends the following dates; youth-only season Oct. 23-24, regular season Oct. 30-Dec. 5 and Dec. 18-Jan. 23. Pintail and canvasback season would be split and include that last weekend of the first split and the entire second split. The dates would be Dec. 4-5 and Dec. 18-Jan.23. This season format will provide a two-week split giving hunters and ducks a rest, while maximizing opportunity during peak historic migrations.
The department recognizes there are other alternatives for South Zone duck hunters. For example, with this year's nine-day teal season (Sept. 18-26) there is an opportunity to provide additional duck hunting immediately after the close of the September teal season. Hunters would have opportunity not only for abundant bluewings, but also tree ducks and other early migrants. This option could run Sept. 27 — Oct. 3 and Nov. 13 — Jan. 18, with pintails and canvasbacks being legal the last 39 consecutive days.
Dave Morrison, TPWD waterfowl program leader, noted that a season like this does not come without concerns. "During September mottled ducks are still in family groups and vulnerable to the gun," he explained. "The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has expressed concern about mottled ducks and we would give strong consideration to closing the season during that first split, adding to an already complex season structure. Another consideration, if we have a September duck season there will be no split similar to what has been provided for in recent years."
North Zone — TPWD is recommending a November 6-28 and December 11-January 30 season structure, which would give the birds a two-week rest between splits. As opposed to recent seasons, which offered only a five-day break at the beginning, this format would create an opportunity for a true second split opening day. The youth-only season would run Oct. 30-31 and pintail and canvasback season would run Dec. 23-Jan. 30.
If a season were structured similar to those in recent years, providing the maximum number of days at the end of the framework, it would occur Nov. 13-14 and Nov. 20 — Jan. 30, with pintail and canvasback days staying at Dec. 23 — Jan. 30.
Both options would provide hunting opportunity to the end of frameworks proposed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
High Plains Mallard Management Unit — The HPMMU offers one of the longest duck hunting seasons in the nation with 98 days. To provide a season that takes advantage of this lengthy opportunity, TPWD is recommending season dates of Oct. 23-24 for the youth-only season and Sept. 27 — Oct. 3 and Oct. 30 — Jan. 26. The pintail and canvasback season would run Dec. 18-Jan. 25.
"We tried the early opener in the High Plains before and it was well received," said Morrison.
Another alternative for the HPMMU would be a straight season to run Oct. 22 — Jan. 25, again with the pintail and canvasback season running from Dec. 18 — Jan. 25.
The proposed daily bag limit for all ducks is six and may include no more than five mallards (two hens), two redheads, three scaup, two wood ducks, and one mottled duck. One pintail, and one canvasback would be allowed during the 39-day season set in each zone.
As for geese, TPWD officials are hoping to simplify the season structure this year by eliminating the north and south segments in the East Zone and overlap with the duck season as much as possible.
Eastern Goose Zone — Nov. 6 — Jan. 30 with a daily bag limit of 3 Canada, 2 white-fronted and 20 light geese.
"White-fronted estimated based on September counts are declining and moving the season back a week will allow more light geese to come down and serve as a buffer," said Morrison.
Western Goose Zone — TPWD's recommendation would set the goose season concurrent with the opening day of duck season, Oct. 30 — Feb. 1, with a daily bag limit of 3 Canada, 1 white-fronted and 20 light geese.
The Light Goose Conservation Order would start at the close of the regular goose seasons and run through March 27.

The Portuguese remains determined to land two trophies this season after being handed the Marca Player of the Season award
Cristiano Ronaldo says Real Madrid still have plenty to play for this season, despite their hopes of retaining their Liga title appearing to be a distant dream.
After being handed the Marca Player of the Season award by Alfredo Di Stefano, the Portuguese highlighted the fact that los Blancos can still end the season with two trophies.
"Everything is going well and there is still a lot to play for," the 28-year-old told ligabbva.com.
"We have a cup final and the Champions League. The league is difficult but we have to keep going because everything is possible. Hopefully we can achieve all our goals."
Madrid legend, Di Stefano, said he "admired" Ronaldo and hailed him as a "great player" upon handing him the award.
Madrid face Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey final on May 17 and and take on Galatasaray in the Champions League quarter-finals.

The date for the public meeting in Cedar Key to explain funding stemming from the disastrous 2010 Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill was incorrect in last week's Beacon.
The correct date is tonight, June 13, at 6 p.m., at the Cedar Key Community Center. An incorrect date was supplied to the Beacon.
The purpose of the meetings is to inform residents about settlements stemming from the largest oil spill in U.S. history, and the RESTORE Act that was signed into law July 2012. RESTORE stands for Resources and Ecosystems Sustainability, Tourist Opportunity and Revived Economics.
Money is being divided into several "pots" that are then distributed accordingly by rules set forth by the act. Some funding will go to counties directly or indirectly impacted by the spill, while other money will go to state funds to help with continuing restoration efforts.

The Australian dollar has slumped to a two-month low after the nation's jobless rate unexpectedly hit a 12-year high.
At 1700 AEST on Thursday, the local currency was trading at 92.66 US cents, down from 93.14 cents on Wednesday.
The Australian dollar fell as low as 92.63 US cents - its lowest point since June 2 - following the release of the weaker than expected unemployment figures.
Australia's jobless rate jumped to 6.4 per cent in July - its highest level since June 2002 - from six per cent a month earlier.
While the disappointing figures weighed on the currency, they were unlikely to push the Reserve Bank to cut the cash rate, Forex.com research analyst Chris Tedder said.
"From a monetary policy perspective, the RBA has been expecting the unemployment rate to increase, thus July's figures shouldn't scare the bank," he said.
"Assuming all else is equal, the more depressed the labour market is, the longer it will take the RBA to normalise monetary policy.
"This is pushing back the market's expectations of tighter interest rates, thereby making the Australian dollar less attractive."
A weaker Australian dollar reduces the likelihood of a rate cut by the RBA, so the latest jobs data were only mildly negative for monetary policy, Mr Tedder said.
At 1700 AEST, one Australian dollar was buying 69.27 euro cents, down from 69.71 euro cents on Wednesday, and 94.79 Japanese yen, down from 95.51 yen.
Meanwhile, Australian bond futures prices rallied on the weak jobs figures.
"It's not surprising that we'd see a very large move in the futures after that increase in the unemployment rate," said UBS interest rate strategist Andrew Lilley.
Mr Lilley said investors would be eager to hear the RBA's take on the figures when it releases its statement on monetary policy on Friday.
At 1630 AEST on Thursday, the September 2014 10-year bond futures contract was trading at 96.585 (implying a yield of 3.415 per cent), up from 96.485 (3.515 per cent) on Wednesday.
The September 2014 three-year bond futures contract was at 97.380 (2.620 per cent), up from 97.260 (2.740 per cent).

Boss Paul Braithwaite said if his Wootton Bassett Town players had been more streetwise they might still find themselves in the mix in the FA Cup first qualifying round.
Bassett were beaten 2-1 at Western League county rivals Bradford Town in the preliminary round on Saturday. Braithwaite said a second Bradford goal minutes before half-time for Mark Wall was decisive.
"We were a little naive and if we hadn't been, I think we could have got something from the tie," said the Bassett manager.
"We were trying to play football the right way but if we'd kept things tight and been wary of conceding at the end of the half, it could have been a different game with us only losing 1-0. We were pretty competitive for the first 30 minutes or so and we came right back into the game at the end but unfortunately, it wasn't enough."
Wall's curled effort put Bradford ahead and minutes before the break Dan Bailey was caught in possession, Wall drove forward and slalomed past Richie Carter before firing home.
Bassett didn't manage to hit back until the final minute of the game, with James Skinner finding the bottom corner of the net with a powerful effort from around 30 yards.

text: Father, four children dead in fire in eastern Kentucky By The Associated Press January 9, 2013 Story Share Chris Anderson, Appalachian News-Express Firefighters from the Shelby Valley Volunteer Fire Department work Wednesday to extinguish a blaze at a home in Jonancy, Ky., which officials say killed four children and one adult and injured another adult. The blaze remains under investigation by Kentucky State Police. JONANCY, Ky. -- An early morning blaze at a home in rural eastern Kentucky killed four children and their father on Wednesday and left the mother severely burned when she attempted to save her children from the flames.The fire at the small home in southern Pike County began around 2:30 a.m., state police Trooper Tony Watts said. The child's mother was taken to the University of Kentucky Medical Center in Lexington with injuries.Pike County Coroner Russell Roberts said the bodies of the five victims were found in the home's living room, where they had been sleeping near an electric space heater.A relative who lives nearby said she woke up early Wednesday morning to find the house fully engulfed by flames."There was nothing I could do, I got second-degree burns just getting close to it," said Glema Blair, the children's great aunt.By Wednesday afternoon, a makeshift memorial had gone up at the site of the single story frame home on a narrow, serpentine road that leads up the hillside. Red flowers and four blue balloons decorated the memorial and included a collage with pictures of the father and the four children.Near the charred remnants of the home was playground equipment, a swing set and a tricycle.Just after the fire started, Blair, who lives behind the home, ran to the fire and saw the children's mother, Tammie Tucker, and Tucker's father, James Tucker, attempting to get inside. Tammie Tucker was taken to UK Medical Center with severe burns, Blair said. "She was trying her best," said Blair, who was fighting back tears in an interview with The Associated Press.Hospital spokeswoman Julie Phillips said Tucker was in critical condition Wednesday afternoon.James Tucker said he was awakened by his daughter beating on the window of his home, screaming "Help, Daddy, help!""When I opened up the curtain and looked out the window, the whole house was up in flames," James Tucker said. His daughter yelled through the window, "I need help getting the babies out of the house." Tucker rushed to the house but "there wasn't no way I could get into it."The family had switched from heating with wood to an electric heater and it was the only heat source in the house, James Tucker said.Blair said Tucker lived in the home with the children's father, Billy Wilfong. The two weren't married but had been together for about seven years, she said. Blair identified the children as 5-year-old Dakota Lee; 4-year-old Tyler Lane; 2-year-old Cheyenne and an infant, Emily, who was 6 months old. She said she watched the kids often and said they loved to play outside and watch TV together."They were good kids, you couldn't ask for no better," Blair said.Roberts said the bodies would be taken to the medical examiner's office in Frankfort, and it could take several days for positive identifications. The infant was found within a foot of the father, and all the victims were within about two feet of each other."They could've been overcome by that smoke and just went into like a deep sleep," Roberts said. "They just couldn't make it out."Doug Tackett, Pike County Emergency Services Coordinator, said hot spots still marked the house as of early Wednesday afternoon."They haven't even started the recovery yet," Tackett said. "It was a hot one, yes indeed." No officials could recall a similar deadly blaze in Kentucky since 10 people, including six children, were killed in a house fire in Bardstown in February 2007.County Judge-Executive spokesman Brandon Roberts said there's been no similar fatal fire in the county in recent years."I can't remember a whole family perishing in a fire in my lifetime," Roberts said. "It's just, 'Oh God.'"

Hundreds of people across the county put themselves through their paces today as they raced for Sport Relief.
Runners chose from one mile, three mile or six mile routes, as they took to the streets of Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds to raise money
All ages, from young children to grandparents, took part in the Sport Relief fundraiser with some donning fancy dress costumes.
In Ipswich, the run was started from the Cornhill by Ipswich mayor Hamil Clarke.
While in Bury St Edmunds, national young race walker Callum Wilkinson started the Sport Relief mile at West Suffolk Athletics Arena with around 380 people taking part.
More than £51million was raised for charity during the live Sport Relief television show - a total which eclipsed the previous on-the-night record.
David Beckham, Kylie Minogue, Sir David Jason, Nicholas Lyndhurst and Sebastian Coe were among the sports stars and celebrities who took part in Friday night's BBC show.

Topic: On the whole, I've had better weeks
While I've participated in lots of forums over the years - photography and health/fitness come to mind, this is one I never thought I'd be participating in. Frankly, before this past week, I'd never heard of cholangiocarcinoma.
So, I just turned 56 last month. I would have said I was in the best shape of my life. I just got back from Nashville, TN to do a 100k charity bike ride. I was feeling pretty great. I went to a wedding the following Friday and saw my beloved college roommate, who mentioned my eyes looked yellow. I came back, called my internist last Monday, said I thought I should get in that day and I did. Since then, life has been a blur of alphabet numbers of tests and meeting new doctors.
I've had a blood work, a CT scan with contrast, an MRI/MRCP, a colonoscopy (had a routine screening one in February), an edoscopy, an endoscopic ultrasound, a meeting with a medical oncologist and two more tests scheduled tomorrow and a meeting with a surgical oncologist.
It's cholangiocarcinoma, but we're still trying to figure out staging, size, resectability, treatment options, etc., etc., etc.
I don't mind saying I am scared. I'm used to being very active, I have small grandchildren I want to see grow up. I am lucky that other than, pardon my language, F&#(@&@^(-in cancer I feel fine. I don't have pain, but I'm very anxious.
I'm trying to learn what I can. I want to make the most informed decisions I can. I want to read the stories of hope. I want to have a life ... a good life ... I'm sure every single one here can say the same.
I am very fortunate to live, literally, down the street from a very good hospital, but if there is a better place, I want to know that.
I'm trying to figure out how to break this to my elderly parents and my son. My parents lost my little brother (their youngest son) two years ago, at 48, to something else completely unexpected. I am hoping to know more by end of the week to tell them.
Anyway, just wanted to say hi. I was really glad to see a support forum, because this sure feels pretty alone right now.
