NEWSFLASH -- SLD announces final wave of K-12 funding commitments - 3/1/99 From the editors of eRate Update The Schools and Libraries Division (SLD) of the Universal Service Administrative Co., the agency that administers the federal eRate, issued its final wave of 1998 funding commitment letters Feb. 27. Here's an eRate overview for Year 1: ** The tenth and final wave brings the first-year eRate total dollar amount committed to schools and libraries to $1.66 billion. ** Of the 30,121 applications received within last year�s filing window, 25,785 (or 85 percent) were funded. Funding averaged $65,000 per application. ** Telecommunications services and internet access were funded for all eligible schools and libraries that successfully completed applications within the filing window. Applicants who qualified for discounts of 70 percent and above received funding for their internal connections as well, while applicants who qualified for discounts below 70 percent were denied funding for internal connections. ** As a result of the eRate, officials from the SLD estimate that nearly 650,000 additional public school classrooms will be wired for internet access this year. This figure increases the total percentage of U.S. public school classrooms with internet access by about 25 percent, from 51 percent in 1998 to between 75 and 80 percent by the end of 1999. To take advantage of Year 2 of the eRate, you must submit a Form 470 to the SLD by next Monday, March 8. Form 470 represents the first stage in applying for the eRate. It must be posted to the SLD�s web site for 28 days before you can submit a Form 471. The deadline for submitting a completed Form 471 is April 6.

WOW !!!
When I first read the information below, I found it hard to believe until I
spoke to a friend over two thousand miles away who has received $7,200.00
in
six weeks. I immediately went to search for this article
and decided to follow the steps.
HERE IT IS.
$347,000.00 in five months ''
I MADE JUST THAT! Don't believe it? Then stop reading, otherwise go on!!
Did you ever wanted to live the good live? Be able to afford the nicer
things in life? I have got it now! Do you want to know how I did it? Well,
here it is: I am a German immigrant that came to this country with almost
nothing. I found a job and worked my butt off only to find that the
American
Dream could not be realized this way. The purchase of a computer changed
everything. I came across an article that said you could make thousands of
dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! Well ,I
thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam, how stupid can one be to fall
for that?" But I was curious, so I kept reading. I AM GLAD I DID. Anyway,
it
said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the
article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list
at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. No catch, that was
it. The main difference between this system and others is that you have a
mailing list of 6 instead of 5... This means that your average gain will be
app. 15 times higher!!! So after thinking it over, I thought about trying
it. I figured what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00? If you are
worried about the legal aspects of it all, check it out with the U.S. Post
Office (1-800-725-2161). It is legal!
I invested the
$6.00.............
Well GUESS WHAT!!... within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I
was amazed! I figured it would end soon, but it didn't. The money just kept
coming in. In my first week, I made about $20.00 to $30.00 dollars. By the
end of the second week I had made a total of over $1,050.00!!! In the third
week I had over $11,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth
month and I have made a total of just over $347,000.00 and it's still
coming
in. It's certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I spent more than that on the
lottery!!(and I never won a single penny doing that! how this works and
also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the
information off of it as you need it. The process is very simple and
consists of 3 easy steps. You may wonder why I tell you this? It's only
possible with your desire to become wealthy too. So go for it! This system
REALLY works. It worked for me so far!!
Here are the steps:
STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each
piece
of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US$1.00 bills (or
equivalent in your local currency) and place ONE inside EACH of the 6
pieces
of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent
thievery. Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them.
You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating
the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are
doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addressee
1.J.A. Weesner Apdo 49 Callosa D� en Sarria 03510 (Alicante) Spain
2.Jack Mckenna 2/251 Shellharbour Rd Barrack Heights NSW 2528
Australia
3.Echo Peters Suite 543 873 Jane St Toronto, Ont. M6N 5A6 Canada
4. P. Hector 1011-100 Echo Point Scarborough Ontario Canada.
M1W
2V2
5. David Sharkey 10011 S. McGraw Dr. Oak Creek Wisconsin 53154
USA
6. M.Leikind Aba Berdichev St,4/6 59313 Israel.
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR Name as number 6
on
the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to. Now, post your amended
article to at least 200 newsgroups. (There is a bunch out there). All you
need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!
Don't
know HOW to post in the newsgroups? Well do exactly the following:
-----------------------------------------------------------
DIRECTIONS - HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS
-----------------------------------------------------------
Step 1. You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own
posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and click
and hold down your mouse button. While continuing to hold down the mouse
button, drag your cursor to the bottom of this document and over to just
after the last
character, and release the mouse button. At this point the entire letter
should be highlighted. Then, from the 'edit' pull down menu at the top of
your screen select 'copy'. This will copy the entire letter into the
computers memory.
Step 2. Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top of the
blank page. From the 'edit' pull down menu select 'paste'. This will paste
a
copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your name to the list.
Remember to eliminate the #1 position, move everyone up a spot (re-number
everyone else-s
positions), and add yourself in as #6.
Step 3. Save your new notepad file as a .text file. If you want to do your
postings in different sittings, you'll always have this file to go back to.
----------------------------------------
FOR NETSCAPE USERS:
----------------------------------------
Step 4. Within the Netscape program, go to the pull-down window entitled
'Window' select 'NetscapeNews'. Then from the pull down menu 'Options',
select 'Show all Newsgroups'. After a few moments a list of all the
newsgroups on your server will show up. Click on any newsgroup you desire.
From within this newsgroup, click on the 'TO NEWS' button, which should be
in the top left corner of
the newsgroups page. This will bring up a message box.
Step 5. Fill in the Subject. This will be the header that everyone sees as
they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group.
Step 6. Highlight the entire contents of your .text file and copy them
using
the same technique as before. Go back to the newsgroup 'TO NEWS' posting
you
are creating and paste the letter into the
body of your posting.
Step 7. Hit the 'Send' Button in the upper left corner. You're done with
your first one! Congratulations...
--------------------------------------------------
INTERNET EXPLORER USERS:
--------------------------------------------------
Step 4. Go to newsgroups and select 'Post an Article'.
Step 5. Fill in the subject.
Step 6. Same as #6 above
Step 7. Hit the 'Post' button.
-------------------------------------------
THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post
away,
after you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each
newsgroup!
**REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL
MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within
day's! You may eventually want to rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of
mail you receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to
use, as long as the postman will deliver it.
**JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.**
Now the WHY part:
Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low example). So
then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5
persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my
name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5,,That is
another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my
name
at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now,
those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3
and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional $626.00! OK, now
here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters
with my name at #2 and they each
only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons
will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if
still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive
$15,625,00! With a original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! And as I
said
5 responses is actually VERY LOW! Average is probable 20 to 30! So lets put
those figures at just 15 responses per person. Here is what you will make:
at #6 $15.00
at #5 $225.00
at #4 $3,375.00
at #3 $50,625.00
at #2 $759,375.00
at #1 $11,390,625.00
When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting
in
the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting
your name at number 6 again( That's what I am doing), and
start posting again. The thing to remember is, do you realize that
thousands
of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these
articles everyday, JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $6.00 and see
if it really works?? I think so... People have said, "what if the plan is
played out
and no one sends you the money? So what! What are the chances of that
happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who
are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it
a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with
thousands of those joining the actual internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and
HONESTLY and this will work.
You just have to be honest.
Make sure you print this article out RIGHT NOW, also. Try to keep a list of
everyone that sends you money and always keep an eye on the newsgroups to
make sure everyone is playing fairly. Remember, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.
You don't need to cheat the basic idea to make the money!!
GOOD LUCK to all and please play fairly and reap the huge rewards from
this,
which is tons of extra CASH. **BY THE WAY, if you try to deceive people by
posting the messages with your name in the list and not sending the money
to
the rest of the people already on the list, you will NOT get as much.
Someone I talked to knew someone who did that and he only made about
$150.00, and that's after seven or eight weeks! Then he sent the 6 $1.00
bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had over $10k.
This is the fairest and most honest way I have ever seen to share the
wealth
of the world without costing anything but our time!!! You also may want to
buy mailing and e-mail lists for future dollars.
Please remember to declare your extra income. Thanks once again...
