ANTRIM COUNTY, Mich., (WPBN/WGTU) -- Northern Michigan is home to unique farms and ranches. One Antrim County ranch is getting ready to celebrate Yak Fest. Staff at a Yak or Two Ranch say their mission is to help others have a "yak" experience. The owners' original plan was to just own "a yak or two". Now they take care of a herd. " Few people know what a yak is, let alone what their value is for not only now but for future agriculture,” Director Bethany Pereira said. “Our goal really is to make sure that their yaks not only for our generation but 100 years from now. And that's because yaks are pretty much extinct. The yaks we have in North America are the only group that exists with these genetics. " Yak Fest is this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

  Daylight Saving Time , also called   summer time , system for uniformly advancing   clocks , so as to extend daylight hours 55  during   conventional   waking time in the   summer   months. In countries in the Northern Hemisphere, clocks are usually set ahead one   hour   in late March or in April and are set back one hour in late September or in October. 55 The practice was first suggested in a whimsical essay by  Benjamin Franklin in 1784. In 1907 an Englishman,  William   campaigned for setting the   clock   ahead by 80 minutes in four moves of 20 minutes each during April and the reverse in September. In 1909 the British   House of Commons   rejected a bill to advance the clock by one hour in the spring and return to   Greenwich Mean Time   in the   autumn . 55 Several countries, including Australia, Great Britain, Germany, and the United States, adopted summer Daylig...

  An emotional Broncos coach Kevin Walters said his men are “pissed off” after letting slip the club’s first premiership in 17 years on Sunday night . The Broncos were charging towards the title when they led the Panthers 24-8 after 60 minutes following a second hat-trick from Ezra Mam. But Penrith halfback Nathan simply refused to lose and rewrote the script as he orchestrated three late tries to win it 26-24. Walters was asked to describe the emotion inside the Broncos sheds after the devastating loss. “There’s no emotion in there, it’s very quiet. It’s just hard to get your head around what actually happened. It’s very disappointing,” Walters said. “I feel for all the players in there who gave so much, but it wasn’t enough in the end. “I think the whole stadium thought we’d done enough, except for a few people. It’s something we can get better at next year, certainly. But right now it’s a pretty empty feeling. “I just feel for the boys in there that gave so much, not j...
