I suppose it depends on how you plan on using your next camera body.
For me, I bought a second D100 body (I shoot weddings professionally) even though I could have bought a D70, a used D1X or even waited for the D2X or the fabled D200.
Why? Well, in my case, I wanted a backup camera that could be used as a second camera at the same time. Not having to think about the differences in controls and settings when switching from camera A to camera B made buying a second D100 an easy choice. Plus, I bought the second D100 used for $825. It was in mint condition although it had over 11,000 actuations on it. A new D100 right now is running around $1100 after rebate, so that's not bad either!
If you want to be able to swap cameras without a second learning curve, get another D100. If you want something totally different (but not quite) get a D70. Or, just wait and see if Nikon will come out with the replacement for the D100. But you could be waiting for a while! :)

The Ombudsman,
The illegal immigration is a very complex subject. Who , what how created illegal immigration would be a matter of debate.
This organization does not have a stated position on illegal immigration. The american people have to go through their own process to deal with that.
This organization's goal is to concentrate on the High skilled immigration and the delays associated with high skilled immigration. We have limited resources and we have to maintain the narrow focus and not get lost in the larger picture..
I hope this brings this discussion to close..I consider it closed...

Haagen Dazs Delhi Says No Indians Allowed
By Kiran Aditham on Dec 15, 2009 12:32 PM
With the opening of its first New Delhi outlet, ice cream brand Haagen Dazs adopted an interesting if not ridiculous policy: those with international passports were allowed in while Indians themselves weren't. Times of India's Rajesh Kalra provides a tale of a friend who was turned away by Haagen-Dazs enforcers. Here's a brief excerpt:
"I immediately called Ramit. 'You are an international traveler, and you have a passport, so you can go in', I said. Ramit's response was instant: I tried to enter but they said you are not allowed for you don't have an international passport. I am normally not given to immediate emotional reactions, but I couldn't resist this time. I was, to be honest, upset. How can they do this to an Indian, in India? Do a story on TOI or NBT? Do it for print or Online? Call other media friends and colleagues? I simply didn't know how to react. Print would have a better impact, but should I wait that long?"
Kalra didn't wait long. He contacted local authorities and used Facebook and Twitter to get the word out to the Indian community and as expected, HD's actions drew plenty of ire. According to BoingBoing, after a fitting public outcry thanks in part to Kalra's efforts, the operator of the franchise (who ironically is Indian) has axed the policy and apparently now claims it never existed.
Kalra, though, chalks this discrimination up to an age-old mentality of some Indian people. "I have often maintained that we ourselves are our biggest enemies. Our mentality is that of slaves and we think anything is good only if its approved by foreigners, or the 'holders of international passport[s].'"

You could try to reopen the case with Supporting evidence of ill health and age. This is a long shot, but a good attroney should be able to pose a compelling argument. Also, try to get an infopass appointment and talk to someone about your options.

How much time did the attorney ask for on the I-129 and LCA? If either is just one year, then there's no basis for appeal. CIS did nothing wrong.

To answer your second question, yes, the employer can revoke your I-140 petition which could result in denial of I-485 application. You are only covered under AC21 if your I-485 has been pending for more than 180 days as the previous poster suggested.

Hi,
My Company recently started Perm process and posted ads in newspaper and jobsites. We have recieved couple of resumes. One of the resume meets almost all requirements, but doesn't have enough experiance in one skill set and also doesn't have required Bachelors Degree in MIS or Computer Science or EEE.
Can we reject the candidate saying, doesn't have required bachelors Degree in above mentioned 3 fields, and not having enough experiance in one of the specified skill set?
And also do we need to do interview candidates before rejecting?
Thanks..
Are you VP or HR person or interviewer? Why do you care about these things?
If you are not employer, your company will take care of these things.Did they ask you to help them in this regard??

In general, if a green card holds stays outside US without any US ties for a long time, s/he technically abandons permanent residence. In practice, doing so may not trigger any activity from USCIS as such and the person may be able to enter US again. However, later on if s/he applies for US citizenship, s/he will likely be in trouble.
Usually people try to come back once every 6 months to maintain permanent residence. However, technically doing so is not sufficient; the key is maintaining ties in US in addition to not remain outside for too long.
You may be able to obtain advance permission from USCIS to remain outside US for a certain period of time without the risk of losing permanent residence. You may want to consult with an immigration attorney to know the options you have for your specific case.

Hi,
I am in the 485 stage, under EB2 India, but my spouse born in UAE. SO I can cross charge to UAE based on spouse country of Birth. My Employer agrees to files the AOS papers and forwarded to attorney but attorney is not yet agreed to proceed with the processing. He was telling that there is risk in this and need a close attention.
Any advice appreciated.

Hi All,
I recently got my I140 approved and I am waiting to file my I485 as my priority date(Oct 2007) is still not current(EB2 category, India).Not sure how long it is going to take as the current backlog is July 2000 for India and China.
My brother is a citizen of the US and I need to clarify if my brother can apply for a family-based green card for me and how long does it take to get the EAD when applied through this process as compared to filing through the employer when I reach my priority date.
Also need to clarify if this process is sooner or still the same as applying through the employer.
Thanks in advance.
Current PD for sibling is 1998. I dont think there is any issues for filing thru family based GC.

Yes, you can file I140 Premium Processing for a substitute labor. I have done that. Got approved in 9 days.
Good Luck.

This story is priceless -- after all the anti-H1B and anti-immigrant rhetoric,
"The California Republican Party has decided no American is qualified to take one of its most crucial positions � state deputy political director � and has hired a Canadian for the job through a coveted H-1B visa."
