About GetRawMilk.com
Global raw milk farm and retailer database
About
Real, raw milk comes from pasture-fed cows, it contains all the fat that nature intended, and it has not been subject to processing—it is not pasteurized, ultra-pasteurized, homogenized, powdered, or condensed. It is milk as it comes from the cow (or goat or sheep or water buffalo or camel)—just as nature intended.
A Campaign for Real Milk was founded by raw milk activists in 1998 and launched as a website in 1999. The Weston A. Price Foundation adopted A Campaign for Real Milk as a project in January 2000.
In those days, sources of real milk were few, and it was difficult to find. The idea was to use the new technology of the Internet to help people find raw milk in their area—many states allowed the sale of raw milk at the farm but had laws against advertising.
When we began, the website listed a mere thirty-seven sources of raw milk—today there are over two thousand—ranging from small, on-farm stores to four-hundred-cow dairies to long-distance delivery services. In 2007, a CDC survey estimated that ten million Americans drank raw milk. That number is certainly considerably higher today.
When A Campaign for Real Milk was founded, only twenty-seven states allowed farmers to sell raw milk or provide it as pet milk or through herd shares. Today that number is forty-six.
We look forward to the continued growth of the real milk market as an alternative to industrial milk. Real Milk is the ideal food for growing children, for the elderly, and for all ages in-between. And when we purchase Nature’s perfect food, we are supporting small, independent farms and rural prosperity.

What is WorldCat.org?
WorldCat.org is a great resource for locating unique, trustworthy materials that you often can’t find anywhere except in a library. And by connecting thousands of libraries’ collections in one place, WorldCat.org makes it easy for you to browse the world’s libraries from one easy search box.
During the past 50+ years, thousands of libraries have entered their information about millions of books, magazines, movies, songs, maps, genealogical records, research theses and so much more into WorldCat. And not just the physical items you could find when you visit a library, but many kinds of digital content like open-source e-books, articles, downloadable audiobooks, and photos. You can also find article citations with links to full text, authoritative research materials, one-of-a-kind documents and photos of local or historic significance, and digital versions of rare items that aren’t generally available to the public.
WorldCat.org is supported by OCLC, a nonprofit global library organization that provides shared technology services, original research, and community programs so libraries can better fuel learning, research, and innovation.
Providing researchers with access to millions of scientific documents from journals, books, series, protocols, reference works and proceedings.
Bioline International is a not-for-profit scholarly publishing cooperative committed to providing open access to quality research journals published in developing countries. BI's goal of reducing the South to North knowledge gap is crucial to a global understanding of health (tropical medicine, infectious diseases, epidemiology, emerging new diseases), biodiversity, the environment, conservation and international development. By providing a platform for the distribution of peer-reviewed journals (currently from Bangladesh, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Egypt, Ghana, India, Iran, Kenya, Malaysia, Nigeria, Tanzania, Turkey, Uganda and Venezuela), BI helps to reduce the global knowledge divide by making bioscience information generated in these countries available to the international research community world-wide.
General principles
RePEc (Research Papers in Economics) is an initiative that seeks to enhance the dissemination of research in Economics and related areas. We want to make research more accessible both for the authors and the readers. RePEc is a crowd-sourced effort: a) thousands of people and organizations contribute the underlying data, b) a core team of contributors manage the system, and c) sponsor organizations provide the infrastructure. As such, the RePEc initiative has no central expenses, and thus can provide all services for free to all users.
Science.gov searches over 60 databases and over 2,200 scientific websites to provide users with access to more than 200 million pages of authoritative federal science information including research and development results.
Bielefield Academic Search Engine
What is BASE?
BASE is one of the world's most voluminous search engines especially for academic web resources. BASE provides more than 340 million documents from more than 11,000 content providers. You can access the full texts of about 60% of the indexed documents for free (Open Access). BASE is operated by Bielefeld University Library.
We are indexing the metadata of all kinds of academically relevant resources – journals, institutional repositories, digital collections etc. – which provide an OAI interface and use OAI-PMH for providing their contents (see our Golden Rules for Repository Managers).
The index is continuously enhanced by integrating further sources / content provider (Become a content provider). We are working on several new features like a claiming service for authors within the ORCID DE project.
BASE is a registered OAI service provider. Database managers can integrate the BASE index into their local infrastructure (for examplee.g. meta search engines, library catalogues). Further on there are several tools and services for users, database and repository managers.
In comparison to commercial search engines, BASE is charcterised by the following features:
Content providers are indexed only after check by qualified personnel of Bielefeld University Library
Only document servers and journals that comply with the specific requirements of academic quality and relevance are included
Our list of content providers provides transparency in the searches
Discloses web resources of the "Deep Web", which are ignored by commercial search engines or get lost in the vast quantity of hits
Correction, normalization and enrichment of metadata by means of automated methods
Mulitlingual search (find search terms in more than 20 translated languages)
The display of search results includes precise bibliographic data
Display of access and terms of re-use for a document
Several options for sorting the result list (by author, title, date)
"Refine your search result" options (by author, subject, DDC, year of publication, content provider, language, document type, access and terms of re-use)
Browsing by DDC (Dewey Decimal Classification), document type, access and terms of re-use / licence.

Feel free to save, download, archive, copy, share, edit, re-post and re-upload any content that can be found on this web site. You do not have to give me credit, but that would be obviously preferred if you did! Also, I would prefer that people do not just take this content and claim it as their own. Although I'm sure that will happen eventually because that's how the internet works, not that big of a deal either way. Sharing is caring!
Figured it was time to actually document some of my work. This blog is mostly going to be articles, write-ups and other ramblings about a few different intelligence and counter-intelligence subjects.
Including anything related to open-source intelligence, operational security, anonymity, surveillance and counter-surveillance techniques, trade-craft, and probably a bit of cyber-security related content.
A little backstory about the author (that's me). I am a licensed private investigator who has specialized in the art of intelligence collection, surveillance, and counter-surveillance operations.
Some of my other hobbies include cyber-security, internet culture, firearms technology, forensic document examination, and general spy-craft related things. There will be articles about all of these different subjects here soon, as I have planned to post a new article every week if time permits and can actually get away from my busy schedule. Well, this was a lie..
Here are some topics that I will be covering eventually.
Everything and anything related to OSINT investigations, intelligence discovery and intelligence collection. Including lists of resources and tools, write-ups of my OSINT research, guides and different techniques on how to conduct OSINT investigations on a vast amount of different platforms and subjects.
OPSEC and privacy research, guides, and other anonymity things.
Trade-craft techniques and other things related to general spy-craft.
Surveillance tactics and techniques, covert photography and evidence collection.
Both physical and digital counter-surveillance tactics. Things related to TSCM, such as guides and research.
Cyber-security related articles, techniques, CTF write-ups and other random IT and infosec related things.
Probably more stuff.
Anyway, thank you for reading my blog and I genuinely hope you enjoy the content! If not, well I can't really help you with that.
Welcome aboard my ship friends, hope you decide to stay for a while and learn about some cool stuff together.
Digital Library of Alexandria
Why read about a great thinker on Wikipedia when you can skip the middle man and go straight to the source?
It was once clearly understood that reading the original writings of a great mind is infinitely more powerful than simply reading an “expert’s opinion” about that mind. Developing this habit may not seem very important at first glance, but the intellectual laziness of seeking an expert’s opinions about ideas rather than generating our own through a genuine act of discovery, not only creates a false belief in knowledge, but also a tragic diminution of creative insight on the part of the practitioner of lazy reason.
The Rising Tide Foundation is thus proud to present an array of original writings from great thinkers who’s lives were devoted in thought and practice to the betterment of humanity.

Abstract
Numerous countries are investigating and implementing their own versions of central bank digital currencies (CBDC). CBDC represent a new form of electronic money that, unlike well-known cryptocurrencies, are issued by central banks of certain countries. CDBC 2.0 is the second step in the evolution of CBDC issued digitally by one or many central banks using blockchain technology, interoperable and programmable by design. News and updates in this area arrive every day from different sources. It makes a hard task for economists or enthusiasts to track the status and analyze historic trends. CBDC Tracker is an open-source project aimed at providing a comprehensive information resource for world CBDC initiatives. CBDC Tracker components are: Dashboard, CBDC Information Card, Timelines and Time Slider, News Aggregator, Watchlist Tool.

Let's use technology that doesn't use us.
Take Back Our Tech or #TBOT is an educational movement & community. Together we'll learn about friendly technology and how to use it effectively across many areas. Desktop, web, mobile, hardware, communications, and much more!
Technology and its users (us) are under threat of being surveilled and controlled by malicious forces. 90%+ of the current population rely on abusive software services and companies to communicate who then analyze, monetize, and sterilize our thoughts, words, and ideas.
When we are successful at connecting conscious users with friendly developers, technologists, and companies it will create an ecosystem where technology can be used as a force for good. When this ecosystem grows large enough, it will starve abusive organizations and their attempts to surveil and control their users.
This leaves us to create a better world where our digital exchange and actions are in alignment with how we choose to live, upholding individual freedom, peace, and collaboration.
