Israel even has submarines w/ Nuclear missiles on board in the Persian gulf, so if Iran were to be stupid enough to attack Israel w/ nuclear weapons the Israeli Navy would wipe out Iran (& Iran isn't going to attack the US w/ a nuke) so what is the point of the US invading Iran? Because Israel would rather have US troops do it than their own troops?

Thousands of Christians prayed for peace at an anti-war service Friday night at the Washington National Cathedral, kicking off a weekend of protests around the country to mark the fourth anniversary of the war in Iraq.
Afterward, participants marched with battery-operated faux candles through snow and wind toward the White House, where police began arresting protesters shortly before midnight. Protest guidelines require demonstrators to continue moving while on the White House sidewalk.

"We gave them three warnings, and they broke the guidelines," said Lt. Scott Fear. "There's an area on the White House sidewalk where you have to keep moving."

About 100 people crossed the street from Lafayette Park _ where thousands of protesters were gathered _ to demonstrate on the White House sidewalk late Friday. Police began cuffing them and putting them on buses to be taken for processing.

My town is currently considering a public smoking ban annd it is creating a great deal of controversy. I think it would be wonderful, but many people feel that it is there right to smoke. Of course they do have a right to smoke, but what they don't have a right to do is put another individuals health at risk in the process. Another argument I've heard is that non smokers can choose to go to a non smoking restaurant; no one is forcing them to eat at a smoking establishment. But why should I be inconvenienced? As far as I know there are maybe one or two restaurants in my town that are completely non smoking. When the majority of people are non smokers, that argument just doesn't make sense. My biggest pet peeve in the entire ordeal is children. Children do not choose to go to a smoking establishment, they do not ask to have smoke blown in their face. Don't you think that in this case, individual rights is just not a good enough reason not to allow this ban?

I had been in US for 9 years since high school and now just got married to a US citizen wife who was also originally came from TW.

I'd like to ask if we file I-130 & I-485, will it be problem my TW passport is expired?

I m applying Adjust of Status and have valid F-1 visa (expired 2009).

I am not sure if it will be problem when I applied for AOS and PR.

(The F-1 visa is stamp in the expired TW passport)

Please someone who has similar experience and knowledge to help me.

Thank you

Donald Trump said the problem with Condolezza Rice is she does not close the deal. If it were me I would close the deal. I thought she was negotiating a peace in many regions and risking her life along with her safety at times. Donald Trump also said that all she does it sit for photos because she is pretty. Hmm do I hear a hint of jealously there?

A gorilla who turns up pregnant in a pen with males who have been neutered is given a DNA test to find out who the father is.

There are hundreds of unsolved crimes than can be solved with DNA tests but the victims of crimes are told that DNA tests are expensive and very time consumning. Also there are many innocent people in prison who would be proven innocent with a proper DNA test.

The real question...Is it fair to waste time and money running DNA tests on animals when the test could improve the quality of the American Justice System? Isn't there something wrong with this picture? Its as if the system doesn't want to catch the criminals.

How long will it take them to understand that the counter culture of that time didn't accomplish anything;except perhaps the prolonging of the Vietnam conflict? Will they ever be able to understand that the working class in this country had to overcome their abhorance of the counter culture before they stood up and demanded an end to Vietnam? Do they really believe that Jane Fonda's little vacation in Vietnam did anything, but alienate the real people of this country, the working class, and prolonged that war? I think that both the extreme left and the extreme right are destroying this country. But the extreme right is obviously more intelligent than the extreme left: because they have concluded that they have to appeal to the middle to be successful. Both extremes are extremely arrogant in their beliefs. But the extreme left is extremely incompetent as well.

Also I found that I have 1-2 days to complete the paper and the reading.
