    I found a photo from cox on this forum that has a similar light condition.

    <Blush> Thanks, Kevin. Skagitswimmer, I often can't use Kevin's technique of getting close, since I am shooting animals most of the time, and they run/fly/swim away. I do something similar though.

    If you use the center spot metering mode (the single dot on Canon products), and then pick a subject that is close to you and has a similar albedo (reflectivity/color) as your intended target, you can get a sanity check on exposure. Then take the meter of the real subject, making sure you're not too far off. Then shoot. Then bracket it, a stop up, shoot, and a stop down, shoot. If you're shooting RAW, this will give you enough coverage, and you WILL get the shot since you can adjust exposure again in PS or DPP or whatever you use.

    You can get about six stops of range in three frames for a few clicks of a wheel, and that ain't bad. If you're using aperture priority (as I usually am to control DoF) or shutter priority, it's a quick couple of clicks to make the adjustments, and worth the effort. If you're shooting manual, it's a little more effort to decide what to change, but still do-able with stationary subjects. Let us know if these suggestions work for you, or if you come up with a different technique that works better for you. :)

    Good Luck!

    The Startup Case For Immigration Reform - Maureen Farrell - Scaling Up - Forbes (http://blogs.forbes.com/maureenfarrell/2010/11/23/startups%E2%80%99-case-for-immigration/?boxes=Homepagechannels)

    It�s not just Google that�s worried about attracting and retaining top technical talent. However, the search giant�s recent 10% raise for all its employees is a leading indicator of the talent and compensation war surging through Silicon Valley, and among tech startups around the US.

    �It�s the worst I�ve seen since the late 1990s,� says Bessemer Venture Partner�s David Cowan, who estimates that salaries for experienced engineers are up about 20% from before the crisis. Charles River Partners� George Zachary says it takes between $90,000 and $100,000 to land even starting engineers compared to $75,000 to $80,000 just six months ago.

    Of the dozen venture capitalists and CEOs I spoke to who are seeing this trend, nearly all say a business-friendly immigration policy could help them find talent to help them grow startups.

    �Everyone of my startups has an issue with trying to fill out their engineering headcount plan,� says Cowan. �There are lots of talented engineers around the world. If we invited them to participate in our industry here in the U.S. we would see more Googles and Facebooks.�

    Large and small businesses are lining up behind an immigration policy that would make it easier for entrepreneurs and high-tech professionals to come or stay in the United States. Congress did not move forward on comprehensive immigration reform before the midterm election. It has also failed to pass several of the more specific immigration proposals made in recent years. One of these, the DREAM Act, would have allowed alien students who graduate from college or served for two years in the military to stay in the US. Another, the Startup Visa Act, sought to give a visa to anyone who�s received $1 million in equity investment in their company and would create 10 US jobs.

    Expect a concerted push to reverse what�s seen as a brain drain from big business and the venture capital industry. Jim Turley, the CEO of Ernst and Young who serves on Obama�s National Export Council, advocates a policy of what he calls �staple diplomacy.� Explaining it he said: �Whenever there�s a student from anywhere in the world who is walking across the stage from a leading university getting his or her PhD or masters we should staple a visa there to him or her and say you�re welcome to stay.�

    Immigration proponents cite studies by Duke Professor Vivek Wadhwa, who determined that immigrants created a quarter of all technology and engineering firms founded in the U.S. between 1995 and 2005. Foreign-born nationals residing in this country were part of nearly one-quarter of patents filed in 2006.

    Right now entrepreneurs and businesses have two options to bring highly skilled international residents into the US: the EB-5 visa and the H1B visa. With the EB-5 visa, immigrant investors can obtain a green card if they invest $1 million into a new or existing business and create at least 10 jobs. Less than half of last year�s 10,000 EB-5 slots were filled. Eleanor Pelta, the President-Elect of the American Immigration Lawyers Association and a partner at the law firm Morgan Lewis in Washington says foreign nationals are wary of using these visas to start a new business because if a business runs into trouble and the company doesn�t employ 10 workers two years later, the investor will lose his or her provisional visa. �It�s a dicey proposition because you have to use your own money or secure it with your own assets and you might not get a visa at the end of it anyway,� she says.

    The H-1B visa is for highly skilled foreign workers who will fill jobs that Americans can�t. US companies must sponsor these visas. The US caps this visa category at 65,000 individuals and it�s nearly always oversubscribed. Cleveland immigration attorney David Leopold and current President of the American Immigration Lawyers Association expects that this fiscal year�s (staring on October 1, 2010) visa slots will be filled by January of 2011. �So from January through next October, no companies can bring in skilled workers on these visas.�

    The United States� Chief Technology Officer Aneesh Chopra says President Obama has tried to lower administrative barriers for bringing foreign nationals into the US for professional development. �In his first year the President wanted to make sure scientists around the world who wanted to visit the US to participate in conferences and seminars could do that,� says Chopra. �We have streamlined that process and efforts so they can participate in ways that are a lot more friendly to their participation.�

    Many in Silicon Valley question how well even that move has worked. New Enterprise Associates Scott Sandell who invests in companies in Silicon Valley and China says it�s hard to bring in top executives from Chinese firms to meet with executives from his US companies. �Immigration agents are more overwhelmed and seem to have more trouble processing applications than they ever have,� says Sandell, noting that it�s been worse in the past six months.

    Still both Chopra and Undersecretary of Commerce Francisco Sanchez say that Obama will put political capital behind immigration reform in the next Congress. �We are obviously committed to comprehensive solution for immigration reform,� asserts Chopra. �There are clear areas of consensus in this country around reform, and areas of high-growth entrepreneurship clearly might be one that we can take action on sooner.�

    The AC21 requires you to have the new employer sign the AC21. What if the employer refuses to sign..??


    Also does anyone have the exact wording they sent to USCIS with the AC21 letter

    How did your wife obain the second AP while outside the country? If you applied and got the second document whilst she was outside the country then logically it is invalid.

    I have GC for about a month now. I plan on taking up Corp-to-Corp, Independent, 1099 and W2 contracts. For corp-to-corp contracts I would like to incorporate a company if I can save on taxes over the 1099 contracts. I am also
    in the process of engaging a CPA. Do you advise incorpating a LLC or S-Corp or a C-corp ?

    Thanks,
    theOne

    LLC is the best way to go, just one drawback , per current market situation (financial situation), banks might be reluctant to provide a loan etc. but if you have a VC or capital, go for LLC. the best way to go.
    Good luck.

    Good advice with different viewpoints.

    My advice is "Look for a good mentors" with who you can discuss your situation in detail.

    My preference is
    Family
    GC
    Career

    This works better in the long term :-)

    To answer Munna Bhai's question:

    Visa bulletin:
    This determines which priority dates USCIS may accept applications for (I485). It is also used to determine which applications by priority date USCIS may issue GC for.

    Processing times:
    https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/ptimes.jsp
    Shows when you can expect that USCIS gets round to processing an application once they have received it. This is meant to be based on receipt date for that application. They may randomly process it sooner. They many complete processing later if there is a problem. Most applications with receipt dates stated in the processing times page should have completed most processing.

    To get GC, visa bulletin date must be current, AND USCIS must have processed paperwork, AND there be no problems or outstanding RFE.

    Oh, I nearly forgot, AND pigs must fly!

    I think you can file a new LC with new employer and recapture the old LC priority date or if the previous 140 is still valid (not revoked) you can file for I485 using that 140 with that employer.

    Better consult an attorney. before talk to the old lawyer and get all necessary info.

    all the best.

    i am not worried about RFE or NOID. I am very much concerned about direct denial and then having to go through MTR and all the stress associated with that. Can you shed some light on the scenarios that miught cause denial other than plain old stupidity of the USCIS.
    thanks

    Got the cards in the mail. My online case status says the application is still pending.

    Folks (those whose PDs are current this month),

    Check with your attorney, in your mail boxes along with the online USCIS case status. You may get the good news in your mail box or from your attorney's office before your status is updated online.

    This is what my attorney had to say:

    The USCIS online status system is maintained by contract workers and is often inaccurate.

    Gurus,

    Yesterday my lawyer received receipts for my spouse and kids (485/EAD/AP) but not for myself. Now my lawyer is insisting upon sending me the copies of the receipts and do not want to send me the originals. With respect to that I have following questions:

    1) Is that o.k having copies only or we should have originals? If we do not
    have originals what bad may happen?

    2) Either my lawyer or I have not received any of my receipts but we
    received all receipts of my family. Is this normal? How long should we wait
    for my receipts before contacting USCIS? By the way USCIS already gave
    me my all numbers for teh receipts and according to USCIS my receipts
    already mailed on Sept 14th. What would be advisable action for me in
    this case?

    3) None of the receipts of my family contain Priority Date. PD field is blank on all receipts. Is this O.K.?

    Thanks.

    - BharatPremi

    1. we also only have the copies of our receipts. Lawyers say the originals are property of the employer. Does not matter I think, as what we needed were the receipt numbers to track status, and a copy in case we communicate with USCIS (if we communicate with USCIS for something, we'll only include a copy of the receipt, dont need original). If you ever feel you need the original receipt (esp. of the 485) you can point them to the regulation that says you need original 485 receipt if you travel when you have AOS pending. there was a thread earlier on IV, and also lots of Google references:
    http://www.google.com/search?q=%22is+in+possession+of+the+original%22+tr avel+adjustment&sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS230US230

    2. people have got receipts (even fingerprinting notices, appointments) weeks apart from their co-applicant. I would say hang on a week before you contact uscis.

    3. our receipt also had the PD field blank. Apparently thats normal

    I had e-filed for me and my wife on 05/14.
    App went to NSC. Sent docs on 05/19 - delivered on 05/21
    Soft LUD on 05/17, 05/18 and on 05/24
    Got receipts on 05/21

    Yesterday (05/25) got ASC notice for FP for my wife.. did not know that FP is needed for EAD.
    I thought last time we got FP notice.. it said app type as I-485.. that time.. in July fiasco.. we had applied for 485/EAD/AP all together

    Have not got my FP notice yet

    I have a Que - my daughter is 7 and initially the attorney had applied for EAD for her too... but then after the first time (2007) I did not apply for her EAD.. I thought no point in wasting $340 every time..

    Now since FP notices are coming for my wife and hopefully for me - how about FP notice for my daughter? Do I need to apply for EAD for her.. to get FP notice?
    If I don't get FP notice for her - will her Case be ok?

    I e-filed for my wife on 5/24 - application was submitted to NSC.
    Sof LUDs on 5/25, 5/26 and 5/27
    Sent documents on 5/25 - Received by NSC on 5/27
    Received Receipt Notice on 5/27
    Waiting for FP notice (last FP was ~2 years back at the time of last EAD renewal)

    I am employeed in IT consultancy, and wants to change my employement as a permenent employee of the client.
    When i told this to my employeer he is telling me that he can file a lawsuite against my Client(New Employeer) on the bases of Small Business Administantion laws, stated below

    Although the contract does not specifically state that the client cannot hire the contractor (you) on a permanent job, it also does not state that the client can. Current Employeer comes under the category of the 'Small Business Administration' under the State and the Federal Governments. Both governments fully support the growth and looks after the interests of small businesses in the country. They have always done it and are even more supportive lately as a result of the struggle small businesses are undergoing in these bad economic times. I have been advised by the company attorney that I contracted you to the client purely on professional and ethical grounds for the benefit of Current Employeer business. If a giant company like Client just takes you away to their advantage, it may not be looked upon favorably by a small business court.

    Below is what is in the contract between my Employeer and Client.

    1. This agreement is for the sole purposes of providing the services of the Contractor�s employee XXX to (Client).
    2. Contractor will be an independent contractor of Company and will work on a Client assignment.
    3. Company will pay $XX.00 per hour to Contractor for all the hours of work and expenses approved by Client.
    4. All time and expenses should be entered into client�s system and should be approved by the concerned manager or project manager.
    5 Company will not pay contractor for any time and expenses not authorized and not approved by Client.
    6. Contractor shall be solely responsible for the quality of work performed.
    7. Payment terms shall be XX days net and will be made on a bi-weekly basis.
    8. The start date and the length of assignment will be determined by Client, and Company shall let the Contractor know in writing before the date on which the consultant starts working for the Client.
    9. Contractor reserves the right to offer consultant�s services to other clients until such time the Company and the Contractor executes this agreement as well as a project work order.
    10. This is the only agreement between the Contractor and the Company. Changes can be made in writing only and have to be signed by both parties to be effective.
    11. This agreement is subject to the laws of the State of Texas.
    12. Either party can terminate this contract by giving 2 week�s written notice, via email or physical mail. The notifying party must obtain proof of delivery of such notification to the other party.

    Can any one tell if there is any possibility of that

    Why before October?

    Because this year's greencards are expired. New quota starts in October. So he should apply labor by then so that he gets his greencard on Oct 1, 2009 by overnight FedEx at 9.00 AM.

    I went threw the forum but was not successful in finding . If possible can you please send the link.

    Iam primarly intrested in knowing two things

    1. How long can the consultant stay with existing employer after GC.

    2. Does he have to be on payroll all the time till he is with The existing employer. I was on payroll for 2months and my project ended and will there be any problem if iam out of job for next 2 to 3months considering the market conditions.
