The Senate on Thursday voted 25-17 to allow the state to remain on daylight saving time all year. The House, however, earlier this week voted to remain on Mountain standard time all year.

• Curry County ranchers Wyatt and LaShawna Young aren't trying to get your goat – their nanny gave birth to five kids on Thursday morning.

For city dwellers among us, goats generally give birth to twins, though single and triplet births are also common. Five at a time is rare. Guinessworldrecords.com reports the record is six, though an Arizona woman claims her nanny had seven kids earlier this month.

LaShawna Young said she's been around goats her entire life and has never seen more than triplet births. "Tootsie" had triplets twice before birthing enough for a goat basketball team early Thursday. Mama and the five babies all seem to be doing well and were resting under a heat lamp Friday morning.
