Web site provides Farm Bill information Farmers and others interested in detaUs on the 2002 Farm BiU have access to that information through a Web site created by faculty in North Carolina State University's Department of Agricultural and Resources Economics. The Web site (http://www.ag- econ.ncsu.edu/farm- biU2002.html) provides information on how the Farm BiU wiU effect North Carolina commodities, including cotton, peanuts, the dairy program and more. The site also includes information on marketing under the new Farm BiU, information about the tobacco buyout program and links to sites where additional information may be found. Conservation programs are a hot topic in the new Farm BiU, and those who want to take advantage of new or expanded conserva tion programs need to be aware of when to submit applications for the differ ent programs, according to Ted Feitshans, extension specialist in the Agricultural and Resource Economics Department of N.C. State's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. “This Farm BiU repre sents the biggest increase in conservation spending in history,” Feitshans said. Yet, Feitshans believes that resources for funding the myriad conservation programs wiU be limited, so growers must get appli cations in early. Applications for most of the programs wUl be made to the Farm Service Agency or Natural Resources Conservation Service. The Farm BiU Web site includes links to North Carolina offices for each of these agencies. County cen ters of North Carolina Cooperative Extension also can help growers locate the agency office that serves their county. Livestock and poultry producers can benefit from programs that wiU provide cost-share payments to help meet new environmental regulations, particularly those affecting dry-litter poultry operations. Environmental Quality Incentive Program (EQIP) funds, for instance, can be used to help growers pre pare or upgrade compre hensive nutrient manage ment programs. The Technical Service Providers program estab lishes funding for govern ment employees or private businesses to provide tech nical services. More infor mation on the program should be avaUable soon. Administrators for sev eral of the new programs are seeking public com ment, which can be submit ted by e-mail. Feitshans said such comments, when specific and substantive, can help shape public poli cy. The Web site will be updated to reflect new dates and information as it becomes avaUable.

They were presented with the case, studied alibis of the sus pects, participated in a campus-wide scavenger hunt where they found clues to help them solve the murder, and even had the opportunity to question the suspects (local actors/actresses). The youth worked in teams to make it more com petitive and interesting. The final exercise which helped them solve the mur der mystery was an elec trophoresis experiment where they compared DNA samples of all the suspects and made their decision on who they thought was the real killer.
