I took some photos today in poor light (please, sun...) and had to use ISO 800 to get decent shutter speeds. However, I find this isn't really useful with small birds as the noise basically covers a lot of detail. I find it difficult to on the one hand remove enough noise from the background so sharpening doesn't amplify it too much, and on the other hand leave enough noise so the feather details don't get smoothed out. So, what I did was use the magnetic lasso tool to select the bird (and inversely everything else), and used more Neat Image on the background than on the bird. I wonder if this couldn't be a trick to save some borderline images.
I'd appreciate if you'd critique these two images: do they look very unnatural to you? It does give almost a 3D effect, but I think I may have gone too far on the backgrounds.

Hi Raysakat
Thanks for the quick and helpful reply. Just to clarify a bit more, can i still file for I-140 with her being primary(as cross chargibility is applied)
You need to be the primary applicant in the I-140 (I am assuming that you are the one whose employer is filing I-140). Then you can use either spouse's country of birth for chargeability (which in your case would be UAE) for I-485 (I-485's are individual: for her I-485, she will use her country of birth; for your I-485, you will use your spouse's country of birth).
while she is on F1 or wold it lead to conflict in visa status?
As I said, once I-485 is filed for her, I believe that her F1 status would cease to exist and her status will become AOS. But you need to get confirmation from a lawyer on that.
SHe does not exits on my PERM application, but she is currently with me on H4, suggesting her intent to immigrate with my PERM application
Thanks
Not sure what you mean. If the PERM application asked you to list your dependents, and if you were married that time, you must have put her name as a dependent.
As for immigration intent: H visa is dual intent. I think she would be fine until I-485 is submitted on her behalf. If she enters the country on F1 visa (therefore expressing non-immigration intent), then it may be wise to wait for 60-90 days after the date of admission before submitting I-485 (and hence expressing immigration intent). I do not know what are the rules/precedence if she changes status in the country and does not travel.

Hello Folks,
We should call the new organizations. But in this case people will talk about this issue for a day, maybe two. The one thing that will catch people's attention is we do something OUT of the way!
I support one suggestion put forward by one of our members - Go the Munnabhai way! Send them flowers! Do you guy have any idea what kind of news that will be? If USCIS suddenly receive 1000s of flowers everyday? Granted we will be spending money from our pockets but that is a small price to pay to make our woes known to others!
This is really a cruel joke played by DOS and USCIS! We should not stand by and do nothing!
So, if people are interested... let us start a send a flower a day campaign!
Dilip
If we plan to send flowers, we should send them to the SAME place, same person, if a 100 different news stations receive these flowers, this would be of no consequence, the ideal person to send these to would be Bill O reiley, God (yea I invoke his name ;) knows that he loves to talk aout himself, and if you get him involved, and throw in the words like , "BUSH wanted us to be able to AOS", he is going to be all over it.
I am going to see if I can send him a note :)

No. Both times it was a large company (one has an agreement with a big law firm to handle immigration-related issues). I asked my current employer's attorney about it and she told me not to worry, they never had issues with AC21 portability (employer has 120,000+ employees). She was right regarding my case.

I am filing for my EAD renewal and had a quick question...I have an EAD card from when I was in college and did my OPT. The problem though is that I do not have some of the details that they ask for while filing EAD renewal, such as what Center was it processed at & what was the application date.
I have already called USCIS & they cant pull up what center my EAD was filed at or the date it was filed. Can anyone suggest what I should do in this situation? What do I put in the form? Does anyone have similar experiences?

be aware. All these PDF editing tools leave a watermark - "Draft" or "Trial Version".
They are totally useless.
Earlier trial Adobe 7.0 Professional did give edit and save. Not 8.0
Bottonline: don't waste time or by 8.0 for USD 1800 or so. Or use one who has PDF editors (Admins etc)

I got my GC last year auguest but her gc/485 status is stil pending. Is it even possible based on her case was dependent on me? What can I do abt it. Thanks.
I got my GC in 2007... Both me and my wifes PD was aug 03... After 2 infopass appointments and a 1000 letters to president, senators and their chaprasis we gave up. She was current for most of this period. Then last month the GC was in the mail... just like that. So based on my experience, just sit back and relax... If its your wifes desitny to get it then she will.. :D
And here is a big joke... During my second infopass the officer said my wifes application had no connecting primary and a derivative cannot be approved on its own. I told him that the primary (mine) was approved over a year back. He said they must have moved your application... I immediately pictured a govt office in India with milions of files stored in the shelves... Long story short he took a copy of my GC and my 485 notice and said it was very strange and that my wife would receive her GC in the next 2 weeks... Nothing obviously happened after that!

My 2 cents worth of thought, that has reached the National Audience. Getting Media Attention is pretty important with this fight.

I just noticed in I-765 that if you are applying for EAD renewal then they need you to send your current Employment authorization document! Did anyone that applied for EAD renewal send their EAD card with their application. I'm concerned because if one is working on EAD and needs to send this document 120 days prior for the renewal process and does not get the new EAD for couple months, what proof does one have on work authorization?
I dont want to apply online as I dont want to go for biometrics (FP) again for EAD!

Hi,
My wife's H4 visa got expired in jan 2008 and I renewed her I-94 and I-94 got extended till 2010.
Next week she is travelling back to India throgh Lufthansa airlines from portland to Frankfurt to Chennai. Some people are telling that getting transit visa in Frankfurt airport is difficult if visa stamping got expired eventhough you have valid I94. Is it correct?
I have two questions here.
1 Is really transit visa required, as just she needs to catch another flight in other terminal in the same airport?
2. If transit visa required will it be problem if her visa stamping got expired ( But she has vaild I797 and I-94 documents ).
Please help me by answeringthese questions.

Brahma Reddy
