U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will celebrate the grand opening of its new field office and application support center in Bedford on Thursday, Sept. 2, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, naturalization ceremony and tours of the facility. USCIS Associate Regional Director Shelley Goodwin will preside during the naturalization ceremony and will administer the Oath of Allegiance to 25 citizenship candidates. She will be joined by USCIS� Boston District Director Denis Riordan and USCIS� Manchester Field Office Director Simon Abi Nader.
Gov. John Lynch will join USCIS and delivering remarks for the special naturalization ceremony. Joining USCIS for the ribbon-cutting ceremony will be Bedford Town Manager Russell Marcoux, Mayor of Manchester Ted Gatsas and Glenn C. Rotondo, acting regional administrator of General Services Administration, New England region.
The new office, at 9 Ridgewood Road, will provide a range of immigration services, including naturalization interviews, lawful permanent resident processing, fingerprinting and photographic services and is well-suited to serve the area�s immigrant community. The new facility replaces the former Manchester location on Canal Street. The new office is based on a national model for new USCIS office locations throughout the country.
The new building is being dedicated to Sgt. Major Abraham Cohn, Civil War Medal of Honor recipient. Cohn was born in 1832 in Guttentag, an East Prussian town. He immigrated to the U.S. in the mid-19th century and fought for the Union during the Civil War serving with the 6th New Hampshire Infantry Volunteers. He was awarded the Medal of Honor �for conspicuous gallantry� in the Battle of the Wilderness (May 6, 1864) and �for bravery & coolness� at the Battle of the Crater (July 30, 1864).
The 25 citizenship candidates originate from 13 countries: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, China, France, Iran, Kosovo, Malaysia, Pakistan, Poland, Russia, Sudan, Thailand and United Kingdom. The ribbon cutting will take place at 11 a.m. with the naturalization ceremony to follow at 1 p.m.

Any ideas or suggessions on why EB2 priority dates dint move forward even this month? As per earlier discussions the VISA numbers are now getting released every 3 months instead of every year. So we should have seen some movement every 3 months. But since October'06 it has only advanced twice once in Nov'06 by 6 months and then in Dec'06 by 7 days and after that it seems to have got stuck at 8th Jan 03 . New numbers were supposed to be released in January. But no idea what happened and it's stuck there.
Any of you have any idea on this ?

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The attorneys at Fong & Chun, LLP have helped hundreds of legal immigrants seek citizenship over the years. Whether we have worked with you at a naturalization drive, through labor unions, or in our own offices, citizenship is the ultimate goal of most immigrants. Today, the government announced (http://articles.latimes.com/2010/aug/22/local/la-me-refugee-assistance-20100823) that cash assistance to elderly and disabled immigrants who were granted entry based on humanitarian reasons may lose benefits unless they have naturalization applications pending. Many of those affected are people who were granted asylum or refugee status.
Most immigrants are eligible for naturalization after a 3 or 5 year period after their initial residency period begins. Many immigrants delay applying for naturalization because they fear the English or history exams. While the naturalization exam can seem daunting, the government allows for applicants to re-take their exams if they fail the first time. Some immigrants who are long term residents may even take the examination in their native language, but many immigrants simply put off the naturalization process because it has become intimidating or costly. However, in most cases, an immigrant who truly desires to naturalize and is eligible to do so can make an application and be successful with the right type of support and preparation. Today's announcement by the administration poses yet another reason for immigrants who have been putting off their citizenship application to call and find a qualified immigration attorney (http://www.fongandchun.com/lawyer-attorney-1416111.html) to help them with the process. Fong & Chun encourages those eligible for naturalization make an application and realize their dreams of finally becoming US citizens. ---ecf

Well I've run a test shooting one subject with my D70 on each available white balance setting and uploaded the results to the gallery (sorry for taking up space but curiosity was killing me). Turns out the gallery read my EXIF data correctly on 2 out of the 6 pics uploaded, "Incandescent" & "Cloudy". All others read cloudy, so I'm not sure if the discrepancy is with the camera or the gallery. When I read the data on my PC they all read "manual white balance" so that's no help. Anyway, the following links contain the results:
