After many months of little or no movement, we are at last seeing an increasing number of new H1B petitions accepted by the USCIS under the fiscal year 2010 quota. As of November 27 th , the USCIS reported that they had received approximately 58,900 petitions. The annual quota limit is 65,000.

Talk back: How will you use your tax refund? The plan sets aside $735 million for road repairs and maintenance at national parks. But that's just a fraction of the $9 billion worth of work waiting for funding. At the EPA, the payout is $7.2 billion. The bulk of the money will help local communities and st...
