Coachella Valley Unified students remain frozen in digital divide
E-Rate
Congress created the E-Rate program in 1996 to help schools and libraries keep up with the cost of providing Internet and telecommunications access.
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 provided a fund of $2.25 billion annually to be distributed to these entities.
While it is not funded by taxpayer dollars, telecommunications companies pass their costs along to customers through a charge on their bills, sometimes labeled as Federal Universal Service Fund.
The program reimburses schools and libraries for 20 to 90 percent of their costs to provide telecommunications and Internet access, including internal connections and basic maintenance as well as usage costs.
The discount provided is based on the level of poverty of the children served.
For example, Coachella Valley Unified School District has received 88 to 90 percent reimbursement in the past three years, Palm Springs Unified has received 82 to 86 percent and Desert Sands Unified has received 70 to 76 percent.
Schools are required to submit a technology plan and use a competitive bidding process to find vendors and meet other requirements to receive funding.
In 2011, the program distributed nearly $2.23 billion.
E-Rate funds are distributed by the Universal Service Administrative Company, which was designated by the Federal Communications Commission.

MORE INTERVIEWS:Crowne Plaza Invitational at ColonialDOUG MILNE:Jason Dufner, thanks for joining us for a few minutes one last time here at the 2012 Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial. All in all a really great couple of weeks. The only one hiccup on the 15th hole today didn't end up the way we wanted.
You still got to be feeling pretty good about the last couple of weeks and your play here this week at Colonial.
JASON DUFNER:Yes, definitely the last month of golf, the last three months of golf has been a pretty good run. Today, obviously, a little disappointing to play that poorly and not kind of have a chance there at the end. I thought we were looking at another duel kind of coming into 18 with Zach and I because we were both back and forth, kind of struggling, both of us a little bit. But it wasn't meant to be today and that's about it.
Q. Jason, did fatigue --
JASON DUFNER:I feel pretty good actually. I felt really good yesterday. I probably felt the best I had all week today. I felt pretty good. I just played really poorly today.
Q. Can you go through what happened at 15, what did you hit off the tee?
JASON DUFNER:I hit a 3 wood off the tee. The fairways were chasing a little bit more today. I've been underneath that bunker with 3 wood, just rolled into it. I had 142 or 3 yards, a little wind in and off the right. I hit a 9 iron probably a little bit further left than I was looking, but still that's a pretty long 9 iron for me out of the bunker into the wind. Just pitched it on the back, and it barely trickled over in the water, and you are pretty much dead back there. I probably could have made a 6 pretty easily. It turned out to be a 7 and turned out to be the difference in the tournament.
Q. It looked like on the tee shot on 17, on your follow through, your shot drifted right, and you dropped your club in it, it just sort of looked like you had a moment like you couldn't believe you had run into this stretch?
JASON DUFNER:No, I could believe it. It was happening.
Q. Why, because you had been playing so well in that four or five hole stretch, it didn't seem like anything worked? Could you believe you had run into that kind of luck, or bad luck?

Florida AG Pam Bondi Celebrates Wedding In The Cayman Islands
TALLAHASSE, Fla. (AP) -- May 27, 2012
Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is celebrating her wedding in the Cayman Island this weekend.
Sen. Paula Dockery posted pictures on Facebook of the wedding party on their flight to the islands and later posted a picture of Bondi serving punch to friends. Bondi's wedding to Tampa ophthalmologist Greg Henderson was a small ceremony with close friends and family.
Gov. Rick Scott and his wife were also in attendance.
Bondi was a Hillsborough County assistant state before being elected attorney general in 2010.
The Republican is a tea party favorite and has been a popular commentator of Fox News over the years. She told the Tampa Tribune that she and Henderson would be legally married once back in the United States in a private ceremony.

The ultimate freedom
REVIEW
James C. Scott writes powerfully in favour of marginalised peoples' refusal to be subjected to extracting rulers in The Art of Not Being Governed: An Anarchist History of Upland Southeast Asia.
THE ART OF NOT BEING GOVERNED An Anarchist History of Upland Southeast Asia by James C. Scott 337 Pages. Yale University Press
At the same time, Scott pinpoints the difficulties of states that have tried to wrest control over people constantly on-the-move. The anthropologist and political scientist draws extensively on works done by other scholars before him. But original and a source of the author's pride is his development of "friction of terrain" _ or the ruggedness of hill peoples' choice of environment and remoteness _ as a major constraint for state-making in pre-modern societies.
Looking back 2,000 years from the time of the Han Chinese state up until World War II, Scott covers people living in a mountainous area stretching from Central Vietnam across Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Burma and four provinces in the southwest of China to India and Bangladesh.
He credits William van Schendel with being the first to call this area Zomia in a paper published in 2002. He dwells at length on Edward Leach's 1954 study of minorities in the highlands of Burma, and pays tribute to Pierre Castre's 1987 paper on frontier peoples in South America. Duly cited is Thongchai Winichaikul's opus on the mapping of Siam.
In Southeast Asia, Scott says the upland peoples evaded rulers "to avoid incorporation into state structures" and escape "peasant status". Those on the move in Zomia included egalitarian Hmong or Miao, as well as the hierarchai Tai or Shan, who were widely dispersed through the area.
He says his discussion of the limits set by hill peoples' choice to stay distant from centres of power and in terrain difficult to reach is intended to generate a new way of understanding state space.
James C. Scott
Scott refuses to refer to the 80 to 100 ethinicities in Zomia as tribes "in the strong sense of the word". The book's longest chapter _ called Ethnogenesis _ spells out why as it elaborates on the hill people's origins and practices. Scott is witty and cites examples that should make sense to specialists and generalists. He emphasises the "symbiosis" of hill and valley peoples, and in particular, their mutual benefits in trade.
