I found this today, It has some of the best info for those seeking to work for job accomodation and finding jobs in the US if you are disabled. I hope it helps someone.

This happens here and other places a lot. Today the US state dept has some new info on this subject. Before you send money or assist someone in need of help overseas contact your own dept of foreign affairs, (non american) and in the us go to www.state.gov or www.travel.state.gov

We know we all have compassion but a simple money transfer can wipe out your entire account.

International Financial Scams

The Consular Affairs Bureau receives daily calls about international scams involving Internet Dating, Inheritance, Work Permits, Overpayment, and Money-Laundering. Many scams are initiated through the Internet; victims range in age from 18 to 81 and come from all socio-economic backgrounds.

If you feel you have been a victim of an Internet scam, please consult our consular publications for help and send all direct reports of Internet fraud to the Federal Bureau of Investigation at: http://www.ic3.gov/ . If the scam originated through a particular website, notify the administrators of that website. If you are concerned about an American in distress overseas, but you are not sure if it is a legitimate case, call our office of Overseas Citizens Services at 888-407-4747 (from overseas: 202-501-4444).

Since this appears to be voter record turnout, i just wanted to say thanks America for finally taking your civic right seriously. Voter apathy is a bad thing and I am so proud of everyone for getting out and finally really ROCK the VOTE!!!

This question is open to legal immigrants and refugees. I want to try to improve a our local refugee center that has just begun to help immigrants. What can we do better and what is your favorite things you liked and learned by coming to the US? What was lacking to help you integrate and succeed?

I have forever and my parents before. In years past the govt pushed them to pay off war debts.

They have low interest but guaranteed rates and you can use them tax free to buy a house or fund an education.

You can buy a 50 bond for 25 dollars and on up.

Better than a CD!

Every person who loves America should buy a bond. It pays down the national debt and helps our country.

Only some people have landlines and if you are trying to reach a person in the hurricane zone do not use cell phone calls as they are taking up all the cell phone bandwidth, use text msg if you can to get through. A friend of mine did to reach her loved ones so we could tell them how to get help. Help those in the zone and tx where food and water or gas is. go to www.chron.com www.khou.com and please donate to the houston food bank, salvation army and redcross. Our fellow americans need our help.

God bless LA and TX.

Americans are praying for you all.

I think imo, that it has proven to the world it is still not to be trusted. It did not allow freedom of protesters and the internet as promised to get the games and the air was horribly bad.

I hope to hear from people all over the globe.

My uncle in his 80's just died today. He was a world war II vet. I know when my grandfather died, a world war I vet, they had 21 gun salute with a canon. I was wondering what to expect this time. Salute WWII vet. They gave us so much.

I saw this on the local news. The mex govt came to help process 250 kids born to illegals in the US who are now demanding dual citizenship of their American child? If they can go through this legal process why didn't they try to become legal in the US as well first?

I have friends and family who came as refugees or other immigrants who followed the rules and I myself immigrated to Canada. It can be costly and a pain but worth the legal process. So if the Mexicans know the rules why not follow them and instead they cause more hardship that they claim they are escaping from.

I have long thought the silver fillings many got back in the old days were the cause of autism. I am curious to know, and I hope this question get worldwide response, how many of you no matter the country, have silver dental work, and had an autistic child. The US FDA just admitted they knew they could be bad.

My child has autism so I am very curious.

I noticed this in many cases when a man has been not a great husband and the woman starts the proceedings that the man always seems to drag the divorce out for years. Why? The kids are the ones who suffer because of this.

I have lived in the US and Canada. The Us by federal law guarantees in school therapy for all special needs kids.Canada it varies from province to school board.

Here is and idea of US special ed. What is it like where you are?

SUSPECTED TERRORISTS, IN THEIR OWN WORDS

In a video, Person 1, shown sitting in the dark under what appears to be a tent, speaks to the group:

"We're here to kick it off man. We're here to get the rewards of everybody that's gonna come after us, God willing, if we don't (get) a victory, God willing, our kids will get it. If not them, their kids will get it, if not them, the(n) five generations down somebody will get it, God willing. This is the promise of Allah. . . .

Excerpts from a conversation in a car during

"Operation Badr," recorded covertly by police:

Person 3: "What happens, what happens at the Parliament?"

Person 1: "We go and kill everybody."

Person 3: "And then what?"

Informant: "And then read about it
