Loading Tree...
The Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) is a voluntary conservation program administered by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) reauthorized in the 2008 Farm Bill. It supports production agriculture and environmental quality as compatible goals. Through EQIP, agricultural producers may receive financial and technical help with structural and management conservation practices on agricultural land.
Ohio NRCS supports the locally led conservation effort in the delivery of conservation programs. The USDA local work group (LWG) serves as the starting point for the development and coordination of USDA programs to provide an integrated approach for addressing local natural resource concerns.
EQIP provides financial assistance payments to eligible producers based on a portion of the typical cost associated with planning and practice implementation. Additional payments may be available to help producers develop conservation plans which are required to obtain financial assistance.
Historically underserved producers (limited resource farmers/ranchers, beginning farmers/ranchers, socially disadvantaged producers, Tribes) may be eligible for a higher practice payment rate for the implementation for conservation practices and conservation plans.
For the person who has never applied for a federal agricultural program, the conservation application process may seem confusing. The information provided on this page and on other pages within this website are to provide a roadmap for those new to federal conservation programs. To get started, visit the Applying for Conservation Programs.

NRCS funds Environmental Quality Incentives Program applications that do the most to improve the environment. Funding selections also consider the land use and the location of the applicants' property. A ranking system gives points to each application. NRCS assigns points by looking at how much the land treatments in the application will improve natural resources. A local work group made up of conservationists, agricultural producers, and others working with natural resources in the community choose which natural resource problems are most important at the local level. The local points make up 25% of the total points used for ranking. The NRCS State Conservationist must approve local work group ranking points, the conservation practices selected to improve the natural resource problems, and the payment rates for conservation practices. The national and State NRCS offices chose which natural resource problems are the most important for the other 75 points used for ranking.
NRCS accepts EQIP applications year-round. Periodically, usually once a year, NRCS announces an application deadline date to rank and select applications submitted for funding on or before the deadline date. NRCS defers applications received after this date until the next funding cycle.
Top of Page
NRCS may also provide financial assistance to participants for conservation planning services through a Technical Service Provider (TSP) to develop Conservation Activity Plans (CAP). A CAP can be developed for producers to identify conservation practices needed to address a specific natural resource need. Typically, these plans are specific to certain kinds of land use such as transitioning to organic operations, grazing land, forest land, or can also address a specific resource need such a plan for management of nutrients or to address an air quality concern. With a CAP plan, producers can then apply for financial assistance to implement the needed conservation practices.
Please contact NRCS at your local USDA Service Center.
Application signup is an ongoing process and can be done online or completed at your local USDA Service Center.
Historically Underserved Clients: Agricultural producers (individuals, joint operations or entities) who qualify as a Beginning Farmer, a Socially Disadvantaged Farmer, or Limited Resource Farmer, will be eligible to receive a higher financial assistance payment for contracted practices, if selected for a contract. Individuals, Joint Operations or entities must self-certify they meet the criteria for any of the above designations (Click here for more information on Historically Underserved Clients)

I'm starting a US business and will need to ship a ton of packages of about 5000 in a month. I'm sourcing the product from HK. Each package is about 5 lbs and 5x5x5 inches.
Any tips on which carrier is the cheapest choice?
And I've never shipped so many packages before, how does it work? Does the carrier bring a truck and I load the packages on it?

In 1928, Ella Lonn did one of the most often cited studies of desertion during the Civil War, "Desertion During the Civil War. Her figures for total desertions, adjusted for those absent for other reasons, were; Union Army - 197,247 Confederate Army - 103,400 enlisted men, 1,028 officers. North Carolina had 23,694 Confederate desertions, 20 % of all North Carolina men who had enlisted, later deserted. South Carolina had only 3,597 Confederate desertions. Virginia had 12,071 enlisted and 84 officers desert the Confederate ranks. New York had 44,913 men desert the Union ranks while Pennsylvania had 24,050 men depart on their own. Keep in mind that a number of men may have been in the "business" of enlisting for bounty repeatedly, accounting for more than one desertion. Some men were deserters from units in both armies. Also important to note, is that often men who were reported as deserters, were in reality, lost in paperwork, in hospitals, dead, missing, or prisoners. Several sources suggest that about 25 % of the total number of men reported as deserters may have been absent for another legitimate reason. There were 33,000 Union soldiers who deserted while in Union hospitals. Of the first 42,000 Union men who were court martialed during the Civil War, 14,146 were for desertion. At the end of the war, Provost Marshal General James Fry estimated that Union desertions were at 268,530. He stated that this figure also included those absent for other causes such as sickness or overstaying furloughs. He reported that the actual number of Union men who deserted to avoid service was 201,397. From monthly must reports, commanders reported a total of 278,644 men as deserters. Reports indicate that between April 1863 and April 1865, there were 154,833 desertions reported from Union ranks. Lonn's study showed that about 25 % of these men were NOT deserters, but absent for another reason. This is in agreement with Frys's estimates as well. With this adjustment it appears that during the last two years of the war 116,125 men deserted the Union Army. In the 16 month period of April 1863 to July 1864, 61,465 desertions took place. An average of 2,842 men per month during this time period. After the third Federal draft call in July of 1864, over the next nine months, 54,660 men deliberately left their units without intending to return. This is an average of 6,073 men per month for that period. During the last nine months of the war, Union desertion rates increased over 63 %. Union records indicate 147 executions for desertion, but this number is quite probably incomplete. Robert Alotta's "Civil War Justice" provides as complete a record of executions as is possible. Thomas Lowery's "Don't Shoot That Boy," provides a very thorough examination of desertion cases. A number of desertion cases were reviewed by Abraham Lincoln and the sentence of death was upheld. Others had their sentence reduced, and still others were pardoned. Lowry shows Lincoln to have been very hard on deserters early in the war, and more apt to pardon them later in the war. In cases where family members petitioned Lincoln, he almost always intervened. Lowery's study shows a marked increase in desertion during times in garrison, especially during the winter, and a decrease during months of campaigning. Very few men actually deserted during battle, "in the face of the enemy." This seems to have held true in the Confederate ranks as well. As you might expect, statistics for the Confederate soldier are very sketchy. The Confederate War Department reported that by June, 1863, there were 136,000 men absent without leave. Davis Stated in September of 1864, that two thirds of the Confederate army was absent without leave. Early in 1865, Gen. John S. Preston, the superintendent of the Confederate Bureau of Conscription, said, "so common is the crime, it has in popular estimation lost the stigma which justly pertains to it, and deserters everywhere are shielded by their families and by the sympathies of many communities." Kenneth Radley's book, "Rebel Watchdog, The Confederate States Army Provost Guard," provides some interesting insights. "Well meaning but misguided leniency to deserters further exacerbated the problem and proved no more effective than the many appeals to deserters to rejoin the colors." Radley relates that for April, 1863, 360,000 Confederates were present for duty out of an estimated 498,000. Radley writes, "...these figures are the apogee of Confederate military strength. After that, the numbers of men present fell rapidly and the rate of desertion rose steeply." Also mentioned, is the increasing problem of bands of these deserters resisting any effort to return them to the army. "By Christmas of 1863, the problem was no longer single deserters but squads, and even whole companies of men who broke away from the army." By April, 1865, of an enrollment of 359,000 men, only 120,000 were actually present for duty with the Confederate army. Men, both North and South, were just plain tired of killing each other. It had little to do with courage or loyalty, and often was a response to long neglected family needs. "One half of the desertions from the Southern Army is caused by the letters they recieve," reported one soldier's letter home. Edward Cooper, Private, ANV, started for home shortly after getting this letter from home. He was picked up by the Confederate Provost. "My Dear Edward, I have always been proud of you, and since your connection with the Confederate Army, I have been prouder of you than ever before. I would not have you do anything wrong for the world, but, before God, Edward, unless you come home, we must die. Last night I was aroused by little Eddie's crying, I called and said 'What is the matter Eddie?' And he said, 'Oh momma, I am so hungry.' And Lucy, Edward, your darling Lucy, she never complains, but she is growing thinner and thinner every day. And, before God, Edward, unless you come home, we must die. - Your Mary" Edward Cooper was sentenced to death for his desertion, only the personal intervention of Robert E. Lee saved him. IMO, it is certainly possible to sympathize with men in the situation of an Edward Cooper, and to agree with Lee's move to save him. But, I think it is also important to make note of what this says about the men, on both sides, who stayed with their units under these hardships. Regards, Dave Gorski |

What on earth do you think it says about the men who stayed fighting for the CSA? It says the Nazi like tactic of killing stragglers worked to keep SOME soldiers fighting. Davis himself said 2/3 of the CSA soldiers were gone without leave. That's what Davis said. Desertions were the reason the CSA lost -- eventually there simply was no effective troops. The ones that were there, would not fight. Even those that remained, wouldnt fight, said Johnston and Beauregard, to Davis Desertions by the CSA was the biggest single aspect of the war. You can't admit a single basic truth about this war - and you sure aren't going to start by admitting massive desertions from 1863 on. |

Personal and family pride were probably the main reason many more didnt give up and go home. Since they were fighting alongside the men they grew up with and others who knew them personally family pride was a big factor IMO. ____________________ We sleep here in obedience to law; When duty called, we came, When country called, we died.

Podad, I think family had a lot to do with Confederate desertions near the end of the war, as concern and pleas from those families certainly contributed to the comment by Lee and others in the Confederate government that 2/3rds of the ANV was absent without leave.

"Weĺre one of the most wired cities in the world, but thereĺs still much we can do to bring the benefits of this technology revolution to all segments of our city." -Mayor Greg Nickels V O T E ! franchise helps downtown residentsCable operators Comcast and Millennium Digital Media, currently authorized to provide cable services in the downtown area under temporary street-use permits, will soon be required to serve the area under their franchise agreements. Amendments to the existing Comcast and Millennium cable franchise agreements will be the subject of a public hearing on September 23rd (5:30 p.m. for Comcast and 6:00 p.m. for Millennium in Council Chambers, 2nd Floor, City Hall, 600 Fourth Avenue, Seattle, WA). The City proposes to grant a franchise to both Comcast and Millennium for the Central Business Franchise District (downtown Seattle area from Mercer Street to Boeing Field, West of I-5). Although both operators already serve much of the area and pay taxes and franchise fees on their revenues, not all residents have access to cable services due to the high cost of extending service in the downtown area. Currently, both operators may selectively bid for customers and may charge customers all or a portion of the cost to extend their cable systems. The amendments to the franchise agreements will require both operators to contribute $1,200 per dwelling unit towards total construction costs should a cable system extension be necessary to provide service in the North area of the CBFD. Also, cable operators will now be required to provide cable services to City-owned buildings and to all single family residents or residential building owners who are willing to pay any associated construction costs that are in excess of the cable operatorĺs required contribution.* In portions of the CBFD where there is a low density of residential housing, such as the South end of the CBFD (Royal Brougham Way to Boeing Field), Comcast** will provide service to areas where there are at least 15 homes per quarter mile. Comcast already serves all of the two main residential neighborhoods in this area (Georgetown and South Park). The City believes that these amendments will make access to cable services more affordable and will encourage residential building owners to offer access to cable services to their tenants. *For a residential building, the cable operator must also obtain permission from the property owner before providing service to the building. **Millennium does not currently have facilities in the South area of the CBFD. free cable internetIt's not too late to get free cable Internet and modem for your local CTC. These free connections are currently only available in the Comcast service delivery area and within the Seattle city limits.

interns shineThey descended and infiltrated, uncertain about what the future held, but now as the summer ends, the six interns head back to their native planets (aka high schools or new colleges) with new technology and office skills and a greater understanding of city government and the workplace. For Michael Hsi, ôIt was actually more exciting than I thought it would be.ö The Department of Information Technology (DoIt) made a significant commitment this year to grow its internship program, starting with students from the Technology Access Foundation (TAF) Technical Teens Internship Program. "Hiring interns makes business sense for our department," said Chief Technology Officer Bill Schrier, "It grows our future workforce, supports local talent, and ensures diversity in the information technology sector." The Mayorĺs Race and Social Justice Initiative provided new legs for the departmentĺs effort. Students had an opportunity to meet Mayor Nickels and watch him do his monthly ôAsk the Mayorö live television program. The students were deployed throughout DoIT and did tremendous work for the city in a short time. Henry Shi provided troubleshooting at the Service Desk, Henry Ho covered the Data Center, and Cleveland freshman Cassandra Nuezca developed web materials for the Seattle Channel. Michael Chan organized Technology Matching Fund web materials and produced a new photo gallery. Gardenia Vivas, who worked with Michael in the Community Technology Program, helped ESL students at El Centro de La Raza learn about computers and the Internet and she helped develop a new brochure on security for home computer users. In addition to those from TAF, Ismail Adem from the University of Washington and Chris Vincent from California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo spent their summer internships working on applications and desktop support. This team of smart students walks away even smarter with new skills, from debugging PERL, FTP, JAVA, scripting and how to run meetings. All the students said they would recommend the Department of Information Technology to future students. We look forward to hosting more interns. delia moves upWe're pleased to announce that Delia Burke has been promoted to a new permanent position as Technology Matching Fund Manager with the Community Technology Program. In a lean budget time, approval of this position is a valuable affirmation by Mayor Nickels and the City Council of the importance of working to ensure digital equality and access to online government services for all residents. Delia began here as a temporary employee and was already familiar with many area CTCs from her work here and with Digital Promise. She has already been working with matching fund grantees and providing technical assistance to community organizations. Delia was instrumental in obtaining 3,000 digital cameras for labs and schools and has worked closely on the development of programs and support for the Puget Sound Alliance for Community Technology (PSACT). Delia has street level expertise in matching fund project implementation; she was a VISTA at Digital Promise, coordinating their Technology Matching Fund grant project. She continues as a board member of Digital Promise, serving labs in HUD subsidized housing communities statewide. Delia has also served on the board of the Association for Women in Computing. Prior to arriving in Seattle she worked in the IT industry and holds degrees in economics and French literature from Northwestern University, with time spent teaching in China and studying in Paris. Those community technology centers that she's worked with already know that Delia brings great fundraising, program and marketing talents to the team as well as enthusiasm and continued commitment to the community technology sector and opportunities for all.

Oxford Schools – lean and optimum budgets to be presented
By Becky Harvey
Patriot correspondent
OXFORD - The superintendent of the Oxford schools, Allen Himmelberger, began the school committee meeting on March 11 with a Smartboard presentation of the school budget for 2014. In his presentation, he reviewed two separate budgets, a mandatory and an optimal one. Himmelberger stated that the lack of federal funding was making a marked difference in the budget, explaining the need for two proposals.
Districts across the commonwealth have had to spend lots of money in their quest for Race to the Top. Mapping the curriculum to match the national common core standards and complying with the new educator evaluation system has cost much.
The "optimal budget" that Himmelberger put forth represented an increase of about 10% over the prior year's budget. It would get Oxford as close to perfect (with regards to accountability to the state) as possible. Going over the accountability status of the town's schools, Himmelberger noted that they rated a level three on a one to five scale. (One being the best of schools and five being the most in-need schools.) This designation has been a catalyst to the school committee to work that much harder to meet the needs of the students. He noted also, that the new educator evaluation system has helped the administration to identify areas that need additional work.
The presentation began with an overview of many of the challenges that the educators face in today's economy. Himmelberger took note of the differences between students of twenty years ago when compared to the students passing through the halls of the Oxford schools today. He addressed the recession and the burden and strain that it has placed on the families of Oxford. He stated that the schools need to assist families that are struggling with issues like those caused by the recession and joblessness. Additionally addressed were mobility rates (students who come in and out of the school system for various reasons) and the fact that higher-mobility students have lower graduation rates and are, in general, needier. Himmelberger stressed the rather new need for social workers within the school system.
Curriculum planning was another topic hit by the . With all the changes th are happening in education, in general, the way in which students are taught, has evolved. "No longer do we need to teach every state capital or every element on the periodic chart; rather we need to teach the students where to find this information." With all these changes, Himmelberger noted the need for updating to the curriculum. He stated that what was needed was "time and money," bringing the discussion back to the budget needs.
"At what level does the town of Oxford want to teach its children?" Himmelberger asked. The townspeople need to decide how much money they are willing to put into the school budget. Things are changing, and to keep up, the funding needs to be made available. Included in the discussion of the level at which Oxford will teach was the information about digital learning. The superintendent reviewed a number of "digital conversion" topics like flipped classrooms, textbook apps and online resources. He invited the public to a panel discussion to be held Thursday the 28th from 6-8pm at the high school to discuss digital conversion topics.
The new proposed "lean" or mandatory budget does not include an additions in staffing, nor does it reflect any losses. Himmelberger noted that 1% of the budget increase represented contractually obligated increases. The FY14 Proposed lean Budget showed only a 2.6% increase over the prior year. Himmelberger noted that not every need would be met, but education would be acceptable with this budget. The second proposed budget, titled "optimal" by the superintendent, represented a 10% increase. This proposal included twenty-two new positions and the absolute best possible education for the students. He stated that this would be the best way to raise the ranking in the accountability status. Most of the money would go toward staffing.
Himmelberger set out both proposals because he felt that the town deserved the opportunity to discuss the importance of the different tracks and decide as a town which direction to take.
Separate from the budget proposals, but just as necessary, was the discussion of capital requests. They included $151,000 for upgrading the security cameras. Other requests included monies for future years, to resurface the athletic track, upgrade the phone system at the middle school and upgrade the network. Himmelberger noted that the middle school phone system is so antiquated that the parts need to be scavenged off of Ebay, due to the fact the parts are no longer commercially available. One question that was raised, but not really addressed was why a situation as desperate as the phone system, which is woefully outdated, was not being addressed prior to the resurfacing of the track or the replacing of working, though not ideal, security cameras. The superintendent himself raised the question, stating that the phone system is essential to the running and safety of the school.
Though the actual numbers from the budget report were not available at the time of printing, they should be available online at oxps.org and The Patriot will make them available online at www.patriotnewspaper.com as soon as they are made public.
A reminder that Supper with the Super is from 6 to 7:30 at the high school next Monday the 18th. Please RSVP to the high school office if you plan to attend.

If you are in a steady relationship and thinking about the possibility of getting married, then you have definitely considered the option of buying a diamond ring for your girlfriend. Of course, you probably know next to nothing about diamonds and, trust us, there is a lot to know. Once you go out diamond-hunting, you will see that there is such a variety that it will make your head spin.
While we could go on and on about everything diamond-related, we certainly don't have enough time for that now, so we will only focus on one aspect of purchasing diamonds, the option of getting a vintage, antique ring.
Why are vintage rings making a comeback? There are many explanations for this and we know history repeats itself but it's also true that these rings are romantic and reminiscent of older, kinder times. Girls simply love to think of the old love story that accompanied the ring and this is why getting a vintage diamond is always a solid, romantic solution.
When you go out looking for the ring, know that there are many styles, different cuts and colors. It is likely you will have a lot of considering ahead of you, especially if you take into account that the ring itself could be made of gold, white gold or platinum. Whichever ring you go for, make sure it is an actual vintage ring, uniquely made for someone. You don't want to buy some fake crap and have your fiancée bump into someone with a similar ring the next day. You should always strive to make it truly worthwhile.
The most traditional vintage rings are usually just solitaire, with a single round diamond on a gold or white gold band. However, this option is frequently not imaginative or 'shiny' enough for the modern times so it is likely you will not settle for the simplest option if you have the money to purchase something more extravagant. Recently most rings have been made from white gold and platinum, while the stones have a wide range of cuts, from the standard round, to pear, princess, assher, heart, cushion and radiant.
Still, the most important thing you have to know when buying a diamond is exactly what will determine the price of the second-hand jewel you will be getting. This is always determined through the four Cs of diamonds. Those are Carat, Cut, Clarity and Color. While it might not appear that way, the cut is the most important factor because it determines the reflective quality of the stone. Then you have the carat weight, which is the stone and the weight of the diamond. Clarity is determined through purity, because pure diamonds are clearer than those that were made with interference from some other elements. Finally, the color. While most diamonds are transparent, some diamonds may come in various colors. The rarer the color, the more expensive the diamond will be.
