The idea of comparing data in motion (at the sensor level) to data at rest (in a Big Data server warehouse) with predictive analytics in the cloud is very appealing to the industrial IoT sector.

In his session at @ThingsExpo, Scott Allen, CMO of FreeWave, discussed how as IoT is increasingly adopted by industrial markets, there is going to be an increased demand for sensor data from the outermos...

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Theres Always One: Will Pat Toomey Help Democrats Save Gun Control? Why All Modern Politics Is National.
Somewhere, Arlen Specter is smiling.
Two influential senators, one from each party, are working on an agreement that could expand background checks on firearms sales to include gun shows and online transactions, Senate aides said Sunday.
Ok, the Specter jab is a unfair (a little) but this does highlight something that I think is frustrating to a lot of conservatives and Republicans .GOP politicians dont just occasionally vote against the majority party opinion, some are always willing to help lead the charge against it.
Whenever theres a Gang in the Senate, its always Republicans joining with Democrats to manage the GOPs surrender on less unfavorable terms (immigration, judicial nominees, guns). You never see Democrats joining a Gang to help Republicans push something they want by most Democrats dont.
Sure a Mark Pryor, Mary Landrieu or whoever will throw out a vote against the Democratic majority (but only if Reid doesnt need their vote). They never openly defy their party to help Republicans.
Now, Toomey may really believe this is good policy or maybe he needs some moderate cred in Pennsylvania. Either way its really a problem for conservatives and Americans across the country.
This episode and this kind of behavior relates to a post I wrote last month about the lack of cohesion in the GOP coalition, though I thought gun rights were a unifying exception. At the time, Jim Geraghty responded in his Morning Jolt newsletter
Let's try to keep complaining about other state's primary choices to a minimum, and trust that Iowa Republicans know the best candidate to run for Senate in their state, and the same applies to Republican primary voters in West Virginia, Louisiana, Iowa, North Carolina, and so on. The people who live in those states know who would be best to represent their interests. Yes, out-of-state super PACs will spend oodles of money trying to influence the choices.
But this is exactly why party primaries (especially in the GOP) are of national interest. Granted, conservatives around the country were big supporters of Toomey but that interest, support or criticism doesnt stop after the primary or general election.
Senators and Congressmen no longer simply represent their states or districts in DC. The growing beast that is the federal government affects us all in more and more spheres of our lives. If your Republican representative is going to be working with Democrats to pass legislation that intrudes on my life, then yes, I will want a say in who you select.
Unless the federal government is put back in its box, the expectation will continue to grow that candidates and office holders toe the national line. If they dont, expect the intra-party warfare to continue for the foreseeable future.

Noel Diesen and Cliff Rankin raise Certified AWA pigs, laying hens, laying ducks and geese outdoors on pasture or range at Rock Spring Hollow Farm in Cumberland City, Tennessee. Both Noel and Cliff grew up without a farming background in Nebraska and Ohio, respectively. However, just a few years ago, after deciding that they wanted to find a place to farm and grow their own food, they found a property online, called the listing agent and saw the farm. Within 45 days, they were farm owners of Rock Spring Hollow Farm! As Noel explained, "The universe said this is what we're gonna do."
Rock Spring Hollow consists of 28 acres of pasture and woods. The farmhouse is nestled back in the hollow, so the farm is protected—largely due to the shape of the landscape in hilly middle Tennessee. "There is a hillside behind us and a hillside in front of us, and a bit of the valley down below. Water comes down both sides of the property, and our ducks and geese have a heyday in the creeks," says Noel.
Noel and Cliff raise Certified AWA pigs, laying hens, laying ducks and geese. They manage a herd of Large Black pigs, a slower growing, traditional breed known for their excellent temperament, good mothering abilities, hardiness and large size. After researching pigs, Noel and Cliff came across the Large Black: "The more I read about them, the more they seemed to be a good fit," says Cliff. In addition to their pigs, Noel and Cliff manage a flock of over 40 different breeds of laying hens, with Dominickers, Welsummers, California Grays, Australorps, Phoenix, Egyptians and many more. "Of the breeds we raise, eight are on the critically endangered list, so we're really trying to focus on furthering those breeds," says Noel. The birds are raised outdoors on pasture where they can perform natural behaviors, like running, dust bathing, pecking and scratching for grubs and seeds. Not only does this type of management provide the highest welfare conditions for the hens, but it also produces healthier eggs containing three times as much vitamin E, seven times more beta-carotene, and twice the omega-3 fatty acids as industrial eggs.
Noel and Cliff also manage a flock of pasture-raised laying ducks that includes the Welsh Harlequin, Khaki Campbell, Rowan, Magpies, Ancona and Cayuga breeds—all traditional breeds. Noel and Cliff sectioned off half an acre at the farm as wild habitat where underground springs often pop up, creating a marshy area ideal for raising their Certified AWA ducks and geese.
For Noel and Cliff, the most important aspect of their animal husbandry practices is awareness—of the animals, the weather and surroundings. "It's so important to pay close attention. I can walk through the pastures and that attention and awareness tells me what's going on," says Noel. Pasture-based production is also a key component to Rock Spring Hollow Farm's sustainable and high-welfare management practices. "The bottom line is a closed, sustainable system where everything has a purpose," says Noel. "The pigs are helping to work the soil along with the chickens and other livestock. Chickens eat the grubs and break up and spread stuff as well. It's a sustainable system. By raising animals on pasture, you end up with a healthy, quality product—for humans and for the earth." He adds, "It's also about the soil. Know what's going into your soil. By rotating animals around the fields, the soil is not getting exhausted and the good stuff is added back in."
Working with nature and knowing how to manage the natural resources of the farm is also a key approach for Noel and Cliff. "Our woods are filled with nine different nut trees, along with blackberries, hackberries, elderberries, black raspberries. We finish our pigs in the woods, utilizing mother nature as it's intended to be. It's all part of a system."
Noel and Cliff chose to pursue AWA certification because the AWA standards and guidelines are closely aligned with their own farming ideas and practices. "We looked at AWA as a resource to do the best that we can as homestead farmers and in our husbandry," says Noel. "We like what AWA stands for, and AWA just made sense for us." Noel and Cliff were also drawn to AWA's free marketing services—to assist in increasing their online presence, to help connect them to consumers in the area and to help spread the word about their high-welfare, sustainable farming practices and Certified AWA products.
Rock Spring Hollow Farm's Certified AWA products are available directly from the farm. For more information, and to inquire about placing an order, contact Noel Diesen or Cliff Rankin at firstname.lastname@example.com and 931-827-3675.]]>
Felicity Wilson and Gordon Sweetnam began operating Kelowna Free Graze Lamb in 2014. Kelowna is a happy medium between Edmonton, Alberta, where Gordon grew up, and Felicity's childhood home on Vancouver Island. As a meat sheep operation with an on-site slaughter plant, Kelowna Free Graze Lamb also combined their talents and interests: Gordon, who has an extensive livestock management background and most recently came from a Certified AWA cattle operation in Alberta, would focus on animal husbandry; while Felicity took responsibility for the farm's slaughter plant and vegetable production.
Felicity and Gordon raise Certified AWA mixed breed sheep outdoors on the farm's 37 acres of pasture, in accordance with high-welfare husbandry practices outlined by the AWA farm standards. "Pasture-based management is working with nature," Gordon explains. "And doing things in a natural way requires a lot less intervention and inputs. We lamb in accordance with when the grass shows up and we don't have to pay for antibiotics or hormones that we don't use. We're also are able to ask for a little more from our customers—it's a win-win. But mostly we're doing it this way because it's what feels right."
Being able to process their animals at their on-farm slaughter plant also improves the welfare of their sheep—and quality of their product: "A really good way to get better meat is to handle animals well," says Felicity. "When people are handling animals, sorting them and transporting them long distances for slaughter, these are all points of stress—and can ultimately affect the quality of the meat. But our animals remain very calm. You can also grow your animals better if you have a better understanding of the carcass. Now that we can see what's going on inside the animal, we have a fuller understanding of the whole process and can produce better meat."
The couple was originally inspired to pursue AWA certification for their operation to raise awareness among customers about the importance of welfare and handling during the slaughter process. As a 'birth through slaughter' program, AWA verifies high-welfare management practices throughout the entire lifecycle of their sheep and also reviews the slaughter process.
Kelowna Free Graze Lamb is within Kelowna city limits, and Felicity and Gordon use the close proximity of their farm to form a personal connection to their customers. Visitors are welcome to the farm where they can purchase the lamb, sausage and vegetables Felicity and Gordon produce. The couple hopes that customers will enjoy the high-quality, high-welfare products, and also that some might be inspired to grow their own food as well. "We meet a lot of people interested farming," says Felicity. "It gets people fired up when they come here. We hope that some might also go on to farm in a responsible, ethical and sustainable manner. That would be awesome."
Kelowna Free Graze Lamb's Certified AWA sheep's wool and meat is available direct from the farm and at local restaurants seasonally. For more information, visit www.kelownafreegrazelamb.com or contact Felicity at firstname.lastname@example.com or 250-300-4433.]]>
Jeromy Biazzo and Margaret Meixner raise Certified AWA sheep at Wolftree Farm in Schuyler County, New York. Wolftree Farm sits in the heart of the state's Finger Lakes Region on the slopes between the Seneca Lake Wine Trail and Finger Lakes National Forest.
The 92-acre farm is a mixture of field, forest and stream. The couple named their farm after the so-called wolftrees of the eastern forests, known for its broad canopy and many limbs low to the ground, outstretched like arms. "A wolftree is the name given to the ancient trees that were left standing many, many years ago in a pasture or homestead site while the surrounding land was largely cleared of younger trees for farming," explains Jeromy. "As these old pastures were subsequently abandoned, the forest grew back around this now ungainly tree. The wolftree tells a story of time past. We liked the name because it links us to the people and farming practices of the past while we work to create a new productive future on this land."
The couple also kept the past in mind when, in 2009, they decided to procure a small starter flock of Icelandic sheep, an ancient and cold-hardy breed that has survived through its thousand-year history on rough pasture and hay. Jeromy and Margaret knew that, long ago, the hills in and around Wolftree Farm were grazed by sheep and the land remained well suited for them. They also chose to raise Icelandic sheep because they are known to thrive on tough ground, a necessary trait at Wolftree Farm since the pastures are still in the early stages of being renovated. The sheep support the couple's goal of bringing their fields back to productivity while raising a thrifty animal for a fiber and food source.
Pasture-based management is a key practice at Wolftree Farm and the Certified AWA sheep graze one section of pasture before moving to fresh fields. This type of rotational grazing management allows grass to recover before the sheep return to graze again. It also naturally fertilizes the soil and minimizes the build-up of internal parasites, avoiding reliance on artificial fertilizers and chemical treatments. "Our cultural and husbandry practices are based on farming principles where organic matter is the nutrient source for our pastures and crops," says Jeromy. "Besides their role as a fiber and food source, our sheep are an integral management tool for renovating our old fields."
Margaret has a strong interest in producing various forms of wool and, in the long term, the couple plans to explore different levels of post-shearing processing from roving, batts for quilting or felting, pelts for throws, and finished yarns. "The meat from our sheep complements our fiber production goal by offering pasture-raised lamb and mutton to our community—plus it's quite flavorful!" says Jeromy.
Wolftree Farm decided to pursue AWA certification for their sheep because they wanted assure their customers that they are raising sheep with the animal's welfare as their primary concern. "The AWA program was just a natural fit," says Margaret.
Wolftree Farm's Certified AWA lamb, mutton and fiber products are available direct from the farm, as well as seasonally at select farmers' markets.

At any one time, Martez manages around 35 Certified AWA Yorkshire, Hampshire, Duroc and Berkshire pigs on the farm, with his core herd comprising 15 Certified AWA sows and two boars. "The Yorkshire-Duroc-Hampshire cross were always preferred genetics for a good, hardy and fast-growing hog," explains Martez. "Winters here can be cold and the summers are hot. These genetics and crosses are a good fit for the climate we're in."
For Martez, the most important part of his animal husbandry is to "keep happy pigs," he says. "We try to feed the animals in a way that keeps them healthy from start to finish. We check them every day. We work to keep all of our livestock healthy and growing at a respectable rate." The pigs at Triple A Ranch and Farm are raised outdoors on pasture or range, where they are free to root and forage as pigs naturally do. This high-welfare management is a fundamental component of AWA certification and is known to have environmental, nutritional and culinary benefits. "I don't have to worry about disease, the pigs are free to roam and do what pigs naturally do, and it gives a better quality pork," Martez says. "I'm in the process of growing 50 percent of their feed on the farm, including corn, soybean meal and grain sorghum, so that I know what each animal eats and to reduce my costs."
Martez chose to pursue AWA certification because of market demand for the product in his area. "For the markets for outdoor raised pigs we supply, if you're not Certified AWA they don't want to know. To raise these pigs and have a market for them, we have to be affiliated with AWA. I want to work with the market and to give the people what they want—pasture-raised meat! What they see is what they get!"
In the future, Martez plans to keep growing production to meet market demand. He regularly attends classes and seminars put on by NC cooperative extension in order to keep up with changes and learn better ways to manage his livestock.
Martez supplies his Certified AWA pigs to The Pit restaurant in Raleigh-Durham and Food Works in Warrenton, NC. Check the AWA directory for details. For more information about Triple A Ranch and Farm, contact Martez Alston at firstname.lastname@example.com and 252-213-8184.]]>
Sanford and Debbie Fishel raise Certified AWA pigs at Fishel Organic Farm in Grassy Creek, North Carolina. "I've been around farming all my life, and we have farmed on our own for 40 years," says Sanford. "We currently manage a herd of about 25 Certified AWA pasture-raised hogs, as well as 30 acres of organic vegetables, 35 acres of pumpkins and 300 acres of Christmas trees."
Located in the mountains of Ashe County, Fishel Organic Farm consists of both rolling, mountainous terrain and flat, bottom land. The Fishels make use of this variation in elevation and landscape, growing Christmas trees on more steeply graded hillsides and using the flat bottom land for growing vegetables and raising pigs. "We currently have about 17 fenced acres of pasture for our pigs," says Sanford. "We like watching the pigs enjoy their freedom in the pastures, and they're a great outlet for all our graded out vegetables and pumpkins!"
Sanford and Debbie raise a variety of pigs at Fishel Organic Farm, including Red Wattle, Mangalitsa and Herefords. The pigs are raised outdoors, on pasture or range, where they are free to root and forage as pigs naturally do. "We average about 24 pigs at a time with breeding sows. These breeds seem to work good for us in a pasture setting, and the meat is great," explains Sanford. The Red Wattle is a hardy traditional breed known for their foraging abilities and their gentle demeanor, making them an excellent choice for pasture-based production systems on a family farm. The sows make excellent mothers, farrowing litters of 10-15 piglets and producing sufficient milk for their large litters. The breed is also known for producing lean and flavorful pork. The Mangalitsa breed originated in Hungary in the mid-19th century and has a thick, wooly coat, giving them a distinct appearance. Similar to Red Wattles, they are also well-suited for outdoor production systems. Lastly, Hereford pigs are a medium sized breed, originating in the United States. The breed was developed in the 1920s from the bloodlines of Duroc, Chester White and Poland China pigs. The name "Hereford" came about because of the red and white coloring that largely mimics Hereford cattle. Adaptable and docile, the breed is ideally suited for pasture-based production in a variety of climates.
High-welfare management outdoors on pasture is a fundamental component of AWA certification, and is known to have environmental, nutritional, and culinary benefits. "The animals are much happier and the meat seems to be better tasting," says Sanford.
Certified AWA pork from Fishel Organic Farm is available at various farmers' markets in North Carolina. Check the AWA directory for details. For more information, contact Sanford and Debbie at firstname.lastname@example.com and 336-384-9688.]]>
Eliza Lake and Bart Niswonger, and their two young children, Augustus and Charlotte, raise Certified Grassfed by AGW beef cattle and Certified AWA laying hens at Kinne Brook Farm in Worthington, MA. The farm has been in the Lake family since 1980, and Eliza and Bart bought the 86-acre farm in 2010. The family live in the early 19th-century farmhouse on the property.
The cattle at Kinne Brook Farm are raised and finished entirely on grass, where they are free to roam and graze and engage in natural ruminant behavior. Grassfed beef is proven to have higher levels of 'good' fats, such as omega-3s and conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs), as well as vitamin E. "We manage our cattle in an intensive grazing system, moving them every two days to avoid overgrazing and encourage lush grass growth, which in turn promotes a rich, diverse ecosystem in our fields," Eliza explains. "We have Highland cattle because they thrive on a 100 percent grass and forage diet. They're great at eating grasses, as well as invasive, non-grass 'stuff,' and produce a rich, flavorful beef. We're really proud that we're transitioning the farm to sustainable, non-chemical practices by working with the animals' natural instincts and abilities."
Eliza and Bart also raise Buff Orpington, Silver-Laced and Columbian Wyandotte, Partridge and Barred Rock Certified AWA laying hens at Kinne Brook Farm. The chickens forage for nutrients in the fields, making their eggs richer and more nutritious than those bought at the grocery store. Eliza and Bart are committed to the high-welfare treatment of all the animals on the farm, ensuring their health and happiness at all times.
Kinne Brook Farm's Certified Grassfed by AGW beef and Certified AWA pasture-raised eggs can be purchased from the farm by appointment. To learn more about Kinne Brook Farm, visit www.kinnebrookfarm.com.]]>
About two years ago, he started adding pasture-raised pigs to his farming operation. Today, he manages about 50 Certified AWA Duroc pigs outdoors on pasture or range. The Duroc breed originated in northeast U.S. in the 1800s, and is reddish in color, with a large framed body and drooping ears. "I heard good reviews about this breed and know that they have great quality meat," says Ross. The pigs are free to root and forage as pigs naturally do. This high-welfare, outdoor management is a fundamental component of AWA certification and is known to have environmental, nutritional, and culinary benefits.
Consistent management and care for his pigs—making sure they have clean water, food and appropriate shelter, as well as room to roam and forage on pasture and range—are the most foundational animal husbandry practices at Ross Barefoot Farm. "When the pigs are outside on the ground, they live a lot healthier lifestyle, one that is back to their original roots and characteristics," says Ross. "It's good for the pigs and it also produces tastier, better quality meat."
In the future, Ross hopes to own his own farm so that he can provide for his family and children and "just live a nice, comfortable life." For more information about Ross Barefoot Farm, contact Ross at 919-820-3223.]]>
The 75-acre Hobbs Farm has been in the Hobbs family for over 75 years. Kevin and Delmas currently manage 50 Certified AWA sows, including Duroc, Berkshire, Yorkshire, Tamworth and Poland China. "These breeds are a good-fit for my farm because it provides diversification," says Kevin. The breeds are all well-suited for outdoor, pasture-based production, where they are free to root and forage as pigs naturally do. This high-welfare management is a fundamental component of AWA certification and is known to have environmental, nutritional, and culinary benefits.
For Kevin, the most important part of his animal husbandry practices revolves around animal care: "Taking care of the animals is very important to me. Being aware of the changes in the ground the pigs pasturing is important. Keeping farrowers cleaned and ensuring the animals have good feed, clean water and plenty of room is important." Kevin also sees great benefit for his animals in pastured production. "The pigs benefit from being free roaming and stress free, and it really comes through in the quality of their meat. The land is also fertilized naturally and promotes pasture growth. The pigs are also great at clearing weeds and brush!"
Kevin chose to pursue AWA certification to help him improve his farm and to help him meet local demand for high-welfare products. "There's a growing market for pasture-raised meat," he says. "People are becoming more aware of how their meat for consumption is raised. My goal is to provide a good meat product to the market. Other sources of farming seem to be getting less lucrative and I need to find a better source of income in farming." AWA certification helps Kevin's product really stand out in the marketplace for customers seeking high-welfare, sustainable product.

Ben and Kellie Deen are proud to be Georgia farmers raising Certified AWA pigs at Savannah River Farms. When Ben was 15 years old, he got a chance to try his hand at running the family farm on his own when his father left to work in Florida for a year—and it sparked a lifelong love of farming. In 1986, Kellie and Ben began buying the first parcels of the 100 acres they now own—just 20 miles from the farm where he was born and raised.
Today, Ben and Kellie raise crops and livestock at Savannah River Farms, focusing on care and high-welfare management because he knows that it leads to healthier, higher quality products: "We make it our top priority to maintain a farm that has animal welfare at the helm," Ben and Kellie explain. The Deens have been married for over 30 years and have four children. Their son, Benjamin, has also worked on the farm for the last 10 years.
Savannah River Farms is located between Augusta and Savannah in south Georgia, just a few miles from the Savannah River. "Our small farm currently occupies 100 acres, with 80 acres used to raise pastured hogs," they explain. "Because hogs are so hard on the grasses and other crops, we are continuously rotating them to rested fields, crop land and wood lots."
Ben and Kellie raise Certified AWA Berkshire and Yorkshire hogs—breeds well-suited for pasture and range-based production, and known for their superior quality pork! "All of our animals are raised from birth in their natural habitats—in a pasture with plenty of room to roam and play. We allow our animals to eat what nature intended, supplemented with all-natural feed we grow and mill ourselves," Kellie explains. The Deens lease land from several neighbors on which they grow non-GE corn and soybeans for pig feed.
High-welfare management is central to Kellie and Ben's farming philosophy: "Treating our animals humanely is our most important goal, and we implement the traditional husbandry practices that Ben learned growing up on a farm passed down from his great-great-grandfather on down, all livestock farmers," says Kellie. "We believe everything's a living creature and deserves to be treated like it, and we are proud to run our farm according to the highest and most respected standards in the farming industry. We also handle all our own processing on-site, so our animals never have to travel or experience the stress of being handled by anyone unfamiliar."
When asked why the Deens chose to pursue AWA certification, their answer was short and sweet: "Transparency. Pure and simple!" Ben and Kellie recognize the growing consumer interest in animal welfare and sustainability and AWA certification allows them to communicate to their customers the rigorous practices they have always used, even if everyone can't come out to the farm and see for themselves. While Ben and Kellie enjoy raising pigs the most (and customers love their delicious pork), they also plan to pursue AWA certification for the other species of livestock on their farm in the coming year.
Certified AWA pork from Savannah River Farms is available direct from the farm (Mondays – Fridays, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays – Sundays, by calling ahead), and from farmers' markets, retail outlets and restaurants around Georgia. Check the AWA directory for details. For more information about Savannah River Farms, visit www.savannahriverfarms.com and the farm's Facebook page.

Polly and Rey Cisneros raise Certified Grassfed by AGW dairy goats outdoors on pasture at 101 Ranchita in La Grange, Texas.
Polly's story of farming began with inspiration from her grandmother. One of the first women to graduate from Oklahoma University, Polly's grandmother was ahead of her time—eventually retiring during the 1960s and tending an organic garden. "When asked how she managed pests, she would pick up a tomato worm and squish it," Polly explains. Fundamental and effective, Polly's grandmother left the land better than it was when she started, and this left an impression on Polly for years to come.
After one of Polly's children developed a milk allergy, she began milking goats, and pasture-based management was an obvious route once her operation began to expand. Polly explains, "Pasture-based management is where health for animals comes from. If you feed your soil it will feed you and your animals." Polly encountered AWA on a farm tour and was immediately impressed by the concept of a certification that not only fitted her values for her dairy goat operation, but also held her accountable to the AWA standards consumers could trust. Today, Polly and her husband, Rey, are proud to sell raw goat milk from their Certified Grassfed by AGW goat herd to local customers.
101 Ranchita is located on 15 acres of rolling black clay hills in central Texas. The land was previously used for hay production—and fertilized with chemical inputs—but now thrives on organic-approved fertilizer, worm compost, and Polly's own compost. "The land is improving every year," says Polly. Half of the property is grazed and other half is cut for round baled hay for times when grazing is restricted, and Polly installed a rainwater collection system in 2014 to continue to improve the soil. Pasture-based management is central to Polly's animal husbandry practices, which she sums up in one word: "health." For example, Polly sows Sericea lespedeza, a high-tannin legume that can help to control gastrointestinal parasites. "When animals are in an environment where they thrive then everything else falls into place." Currently Polly is sowing cover crops with a no-till drill method for cover crops and planting Sunn Hemp for its 30 percent protein content.
Polly and Rey currently manage a herd of registered La Mancha dairy goats, with plans to continue to grow their herd over time. Polly chose La Manchas because they are small enough to manage without assistance, and believes their herd size fits well with their acreage. La Manchas are also highly regarded for their pleasant disposition. "I have always heard La Manchas are one of the kindest and most loving of goats. And they are," says Polly. Keeping the goats healthy allows Polly to intervene as little as possible during kidding and the three months following. The Cisneros' long-term goals include milking 30 does at a time using a system of milking rather than breeding every year. In the meantime, they're excited about the milestone of certification: "I am proud that our goats are Certified Grassfed by AGW," says Polly. "And I'm proud to put the Certified Grassfed by AGW logo on my products."
Raw goat milk from 101 Ranchita's Certified Grassfed by AGW goat herd is available by appointment direct from the farm. Call (979) 247-2873 for availability. To learn more about 101 Ranchita, visit their Facebook page at 101 Ranchita Dairy Goats LLC.]]>

The hook up was real simple, i just needed an HDMI cable plugged in from my (smart) tv to my Toshiba unit, that's it.(Note If you don't have a smart tv then you will have to go to the section in the instruction booklet that accommodate your TV's wiring needs.) As for recording etc, the hook up may be different (i have friends who could help me if needed w that if need be.) But what made the instruction booklet rather complex, rather than complicated, is that it accounts for every way a person would hook up the Toshiba unit depending upon your TV's features and age ( for ex: by using and HDMI for a smart tv, or, By using component cables for non smart tv's etc.) Its very thorough, but you really need to sit down and focus, and know what your tv's capacity is , then start from there and ignore all the rest. As for imperfections i noticed the dvd open/close button on the remote is slow and sometimes did not work. in all fairness, i used the batteries enclosed, so all it may need are new batteries. I am really happy with it though. Hope this helps those of you who are on the fence.

I purchased this VCR/DVD Recorder unit & I do 'NOT' to recommend it to anyone unless they know a 'LOT' about today's techinology. PLUS it is 'immpossible' to get any help installing it from Toshiba, as all they do is tell you to read the book (that's nothing but Greek to you), let alone they can barely speak English (if at all)!!! There's also way too many 'really small' buttons on the remote & it's almost impossible to read what they are for or supposed to do... For somebody that is a pro, it might be good for them, but diffently 'NOT' for a senior citizen like myself.. In fact I had it for way over a month before I could 'FINALLY' find somebody to install it for me & it was complicated as all get out, and even then they had a hard time.. So think twice about this one folks, as it is nothing like my old JVC unit that went out.

Employees have just 90 days from the date they receive an EEOC right-to-sue letter to file a federal discrimination lawsuit. Otherwise, they lose the right to do so.
However, 90 days isn't as straightforward a deadline as it might seem. Courts add three days for mailing and then allow the employee to file the complaint that day—or the next day the court is open for business if the 93rd day falls on a holiday or weekend.
Recent case: Roberto claimed that he was terminated from his job because of prejudice against him for having been born in the Philippines, holding dual U.S.-Philippines citizenship and speaking Tagalog at work sometimes.
He filed suit on March 18, 2013. His former employer claimed the filing was more than 90 days after he must have received the right-to-sue letter, dated Dec. 14, 2012.
The court said the presumption was that the letter was mailed on Dec. 14 and was received three days later on Dec. 17. Ninety days after Dec. 17 would have been March 17. However, because March 17 was a Sunday, the 90-day period was extended to Monday, March 18. Therefore, the court said he filed on time and can proceed with his lawsuit. (Nepomuceno v. Cherokee Medical Services, No. 13-CV-633, SD CA, 2013)
