Belgian-born Diane Von Furstenberg was profiled yesterday in the New York Times as an example of a fashion designer who is actually doing well despite the economic downturn. Furstenberg has been a major figure in American fashion design for nearly four decades. Her designs are worn by famous women like Jessica Alba, Madonna and Jennifer Lopez. Von Furstenberg gave some common sense advice in the interview that is worth repeating: �It�s more important than ever to have confidence. Everyone else is insecure. If you start to take a little bit of everyone else�s insecurity � forget it.�

House Democrats Try Softening Their Tone; Lawmakers Seek Republican Votes Amid Veto Threats (http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB119491416890790655.html) By David Rogers | Wall Street Journal, Nov 13, 2007
WASHINGTON -- Down in the polls, House Democrats are showing a little more finesse as they try to move their legislative agenda around the wall of veto threats thrown up by President Bush.
Cute is out; conciliation is in. Late-night talks with Republican moderates intensified last week on the Democrats' signature health- care initiative -- extending coverage to millions of working class children. Staff negotiations continued during the holiday weekend, and Georgia Rep. Nathan Deal, a Democrat-turned-Republican with expertise on health and welfare issues, has been invited in by both sides as a broker.
House Appropriations Committee Chairman David Obey (D., Wis.) last week abandoned a confrontational plan to pair defense and education budgets, which would have dared the president to veto both. Instead the two bills were sent separately to Mr. Bush, who could veto the education measure as early as today. Looking ahead to the override vote, Mr. Obey took care to preserve House Republican provisions regarding abortion, child vaccines and abstinence education.
The House is scheduled Thursday to take up an antipredatory lending bill that is a showcase of cooperation between the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, Rep. Barney Frank (D., Mass.) and his ranking Republican, Rep. Spencer Bachus of Alabama.
"He called up and said why don't you come down to my office and tell me what you need to be on the bill," said Rep. Steve LaTourette (R., Ohio) of his own dealings with the chairman. Mr. Frank is a close ally of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and has urged Democrats to permit more Republican amendments as a way to change the political tone in the House.
"It's transactional -- you have to see what it brings," Mr. Frank said. "But Hubert Humphrey once said, 'Whenever I get cute, I blow it.' That's the same thing I'm saying: if you try to be too political there's a backlash."
That backlash is evident: Congress's approval rating has fallen from 31% in March to 19% this month in the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.
A year after returning to power, House Democrats are at a crossroads. The party's early agenda -- tougher ethics rules, a minimum-wage increase and more aid for college students -- is largely in place. To go further, the majority must overcome not just presidential vetoes but the often-crippling partisan bitterness left from 12 years under Republican rule.
The war in Iraq, which permeates Washington and again divides the House this week, makes that cooperation harder. As the president lays down vetoes, he seems to prefer a divided Congress that poses less of a challenge. And the Senate's filibuster rules, which require a 60- vote supermajority just to get a bill to the White House, are an added frustration for House Democrats.
Allies of Ms. Pelosi said she could do more to take the lead and soften the tone in the House by using her power over the Rules Committee to allow more Republican amendments.
Last month's floor fight over the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act -- a controversial arena relating to the government's wiretapping activities -- is a case in point. The Rules panel disallowed all 27 Republican amendments. The minority retaliated with a procedural motion that successfully forced the bill to be withdrawn, and it still hasn't come back up for debate.
Ms. Pelosi's combative nature doesn't make such a shift easy. When the president recently accused Democrats of being led from the left by the anti-war group Code Pink, she saw it as a slight on her and responded in kind, saying Mr. Bush was acting less like "the president of the United States" than a "a junkyard dog on television every day because he has nothing to produce."
Going into 2008, the Californian said her party is well positioned on the issues most important to voters. Democrats think the child health-care fight is a long-term winner with bipartisan appeal. Party polls show her next priority, an energy bill that demands that cars be more fuel efficient, would appeal to independent voters. And tougher safety standards for imports from China is a third bipartisan issue that Democrats hope will improve Congress's image and is a reminder of Ms. Pelosi's early human-rights record on China.
"Nothing is a setback, we're going forward," she said, sitting in her Capitol office.
Ms. Pelosi's tough style borrows from her hero: the late Speaker Thomas "Tip" O'Neill of Massachusetts. Another Boston politician, and an O'Neill ally, Joseph Moakley, may be more relevant in Ms. Pelosi's predicament.
Mr. Moakley, a former chairman and long-time fixture in the House Rules Committee, lived by the maxim that he was in power to "say yes, not no."
"I always thought real power was the ability to say yes," Mr. Moakley said months before his death in 2001. "Because when I'd say yes, I found out they'd usually say yes back to me."

Wow. From The Washington Blade: Applicants for Justice Department internships and honors programs may have been rejected based on their membership in LGBT groups during the Bush administration, the Blade has learned. Numerous applicants were denied entry to the department�s Honors Program and the summer intern program starting in 2006 because of their previous work in what were deemed to be liberal organizations, according to an internal Justice Department report issued last year. The practice occurred while Attorney General Alberto Gonzales led the department. The Blade recently learned that among the blacklisted groups was Immigration Equality, which focuses on LGBT-related...

This looks similar to the PERM applied for labor... It would be faster for new applicants.. but old applicants could get stuck again... for years... and years... not due to visa.. but due to transformation...

Hi,
I am currently on 8th year of H1-B, employer to file for 9th year H1 extension next week. Labor filed in Dec 07, denied in Jan 10, appealed immediately. Currently awaiting response to the labor appeal. H1 expires in Jan 2011.
I work for a consulting firm and my client has been requesting me to join full time as an employee, willing to transfer H1 immediately. My question to the experts is
If I change employer, will I have to start everything from scratch or can i continue the GC from where my current employer left?
And given the current political situation (due to the economy), should I stick to current employer until H1 extension goes through and then make a move (if any possibilities exist)?
Any advise is much appreciated.

I have a question regarding location change with same employer. I have labor approved on EB2 India with PD 01/2005. I am employed with a big health care firm which has various locations in the region. I'd like to move to another location which is 30 miles away from my present site. I140 is pending with the same employer. I have also posed this question to my lawyer but appreciate greatly if anyone knows answer to this. Will this affect my GC?

If you call USCIS 1800 number, and you ask the representative to raise a service request then they email the service center asking for details. Most of the time, personnel from service center will call back with the information that you have requested. If you learn there is a way you can email the service center, please post here.

I am a July filer and have the option of working for a reputable company as expert consultant for 6 months (initial offer). Yates memo indicates that self-employment is possible. Here is my question: Do we need to register a company to be considered self-employed? As a consultant you may not have a customer for while. Isn't it better to register a company if you want to claim self employment? What are the pros and cons of registering a company?

When a particular priority date becomes current in the next month's bulletin,say the July bulletin. Does USCIS start looking at the current cases once the July bulletin is issued or starts looking at them from July 1st.
Any response is appreciated.

I am working for a client which gave me an offer for a respectable amount. it is much higher than the amount specified in ETA 9089 (F/5) column. my Onet code for the original labor is 15-1071.00. my new job is defined as System Specialist. my job functions( roles) are pretty much the same as my original labor certificate. I tried to search the Onet Code for System specialist and did not find a good match.
Can any one suggest me what are the options.
I also wanted to know weather USCIS will send any letter to new employer regarding to the offer extended to me. MY situation is the client is not willing to sponsor me.
Thank you

Hi Unitednations,
Good to see you in Immigration voice. I use to follow your posts when you were back in ImmigrationPortal. I have a request for you here.

Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks & Regards

The big news today was Senator Reid now backtracking and promising climate change legislation before immigration reform. But in a seeming effort to show the Democrats are close to ready to go on immigration reform, Senators Reid, Schumer and Menendez began circulating a detailed outline of a comprehensive immigration reform bill that appears to exclude Senator Graham. There are many positive things in the plan, a few worrisome ones and several new concepts. Incidentally, the new two stage legalization process looks very familiar. A helpful reader posted this link where the 26 page proposal is posted. I've read the proposal...
