  1. Found the ultimate device 3 years ago. It's called "Got Wife"..Not sold in local stores for any price.
  2. I brought 10 back myself from six trips, wife dang near brought her whole house back at poe. Never had a problem. The only item may have been a problem was cds. Jing had 4 more bamboo scrolls at poe didnt have a problem. I had the same warriors I think. Got them at the Xi'an site also. Had no problem. Dang things got busted up on the flight though.
  3. Lees right. We did this 3 months ago in DC. Passport was expired so Chinas a no go. Do check with a consulate yourself about when and where they travel. Know first hand that can change at any time. All we needed was her I-94 and her passport. Didn't even need the I-94 when we got there only her passport. Yes in person is required. No one day service on passports. Take a recent passport/visa style photo with you 4 would be better. If not the consulate will have a photo booth or an area inside they will do it for you at a cost. Never did find out if traveling officers could do this. Gave up real fast on that option. When the consulate has come here we were expected to have everything ready including photos, they did have a good supply of forms, we discovered the form on the website was not what they were expecting and had to redo it just before they saw her. Lee is right on spot. In our area DC advised not to go the traveling prc route. Only our area they said. As he said the standard form on the website may not be the one you need. Thats another reason we didn't do it. Do make sure you have the pre-paid return envelope. Forgot his id but another member in NC had to re-new his wifes passport within the last month. He went to DC also.
  4. I would guess same as any other visit. Have your passport, don't take a mobile or camera in. If you don't have a place to put it they will take it and give you a number. It's like going through airport security, but you don't take your shoes off. Search for American Citizen Hour or ACH. I'm pretty sure there's a write up stickied somewhere. True. Just don't expect answers to questions about your case. It's a general FAQ in .gov form.
  5. This is not true - the Chinese forms are necessary - the English are not needed. USCONGUZ seems unclear here also http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...st&p=207951 The medical people often have their own standards for the forms, but I don't think we've heard of the screeners at the consulate rejecting a properly filled out form before I think you mean the other way around. We did just the English DS-156 and left the Chinese version out. I asked about this at the consulate at ACH and the answer was if can do the English forms, then just do the English forms. http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...st&p=283693 That's what I remembered, and initially posted. USCONGUZ, however, first posted that the forms should be done in Chinese, and then back-tracked when it was pointed out that an non-Chinese applicant may not speak Chinese. It seems to all be a matter of expediency in getting past the medical workers and pre-screeners at the consulate. Randy and All, If you have read my interview post, You would know about the two Forms. At the medical...the medical staff wanted the DS-156 filled out in Chinese, but I convinced them to take the DS-156 that were filled out in English only. At Ling's interview...when they (the consulate staff) opened the medical envelope and found only the DS-156 filled out in only English..they made Ling find me and they wanted the DS-156 filled out in Chinese with telegraphic codes. So we finally filled out the DS-156 in both English and Chinese,,and it would be advisable to fill them out both ways to save you the hassle of doing it during the interview...and I just went through the interview. And Randy...I said that the Chinese DS-156 forms were important and that they needed to be filled out because the consulate staff insisted they wanted the forms filled out in Chinese. Tom and Ling We didn't use the one on Shamian Island. The other one was closer to home. They did say both english and chinese would be needed and advised me to do this. I was in the waiting room. My wife was a doctor at the same hospital so a co-worker there came out and talked to me. Make sure you have both at interview time. We have seen some who only needed english others chinese. Maybe it depends who she sees that day. Realy don't know.

  7. By remaining silent you are giving your implied consent for your husband to continue his abuse towards your son. If you truly love your husband you will get him help. Quite possibly, his behavior is learned. You need to help him break the cycle, as he is only teaching your son that abusive behavior is acceptable. If your husband will not listen to your words or pleas for him to stop then you may need to act by finding a shelter for you and your son to live. Drastic action my be necessary for your husband to realize that he needs to get help for himself. Good luck and, if you decide to find shelter, there are members here who can help you. Agree..She metioned chinese so some one could not read it. The best women for that can be found right here. Maybe if she posts anymore it should be there.
  8. www.tigerdirect.com www.geeks.com Both had it for $89.95 Two weeks ago Ebay also but price not sure of. Shipping is extra best I know. Try your local cpu private owned stores. Sometimes price is better with no shipping charges. but they have TAX... and make sure you buy XP PRO... and not XP Home Yep sam wants his share. Urkidding ain't kidding pro would be better. Make sure its at least sp2. Sp3 if can find it. Better to have it included. Downloading sp's from update can mess your system up even running only xp. Even more on a mac.

  10. Rice hard to eat with chopsticks in China. Not so hard here since its mostly in chunks. 100's of resturants in China we did the same with rice or soup. Chops dont have enough horsepower drag and drop with rice fingers are your friend. That chinese spoon dont fit mouth right? No problem pick it up and drink it same as ur tea. Folks at the next table will follow your lead. Use the force many will follow

  12. Thank you all who have replied. I used a different software Windows DVD Maker. When I put in the first disc, the software rejected it as "not rewritable". But the second disc worked perfectly well. The original software which did not work was Windows Media Center. Thank you again for your suggestions! Vids and tunes not the same thing. Vids are movies. Music is audio. Windows is ok but like another posted use Nero or Jriver mediacenter. Stopped useing RW dvd's and RW cdr's. More trouble than they are worth. Have had mediacenter 5 years best software have found for the price.
  13. Anyone seen a cheap one way. Best found is rdu to can $874.00 Flychina found this rate, will be last flight, need cheap as can get. Anyone know a one way cheaper? Its a good price I think.
  14. This www mess gets me. Pick a site, pick a pic. Shes hot so what she wrote didnt matter at all. Forget the flags if you want to. I'm sorry but pick a site, find a hotty pic. What happens after that is 100% up to you. Easy to find a pic from any country. Much harder to know whos behind that pic. Yours or hers. Sorry sound so blunt. Just be sure what your getting into.
  15. I agree..Every where I've been in China, around our home, at the 7-11, Pak-in-shop, bus stop, just walking down the street meeting kids just out of school, at the malls, even at McDonalds I was amazed how polite and respectfull children and teenagers were. Sure some are cant say theres not. It is different here. Children not much but teenagers you see any where you go here makes you wonder whats thier problem. Many have no morals, no respect for anything it seems. Not even thierself. Understand the (2nd mother) thing to. Its just my HO but many times she walks a fine line. Many times have seen the parent take the side of the child even though they know better. Makes it even harder on her if she is from another country. Seen it to many times to say it's not. Just my HO but agree with you 100%. My wifes role in my teenage sons life has not been (2nd mom). She is mom and he has learned from her, listens to her and takes what she tells him to heart. Shes from China but her Chinglish is better than my English or his. I do not get in the way. She says if you dont say it up front soon it will stick out behind. Agree with you 100%. let her post in the new chinese forum, yes ? lets us hear what all your wives/fiances have to say Great idea Jin, will ak her to post
  16. Seen that also. Had italk 2 years. Talked to a few people local but always get asked you mean vonage? Not found anyone that would switch most of them say why haven't we seen a add on tv? Kinda gave up trying.
  17. No such thing Hao as our .gov on time, only with cashing your check. We have been in this "nothing" over two years. It takes a lot of time. Dont be so worried yet.
  18. I'm sorry dnoblett, what are you saying here? Could you expand on this as I'm not understanding your meaning. Thanks, If Your Case Is Outside Our Current Processing Time The processing times that we publish let you estimate how long it will take us to process cases filed before yours, and then process your case. However, every case is different and sometimes an individual case can take longer than average. If you don't hear from us within the normal processing time, check for updated processing times on our website. If your case has a receipt number, use it to check on the status of your case at the same time. We recommend this action on your part because our notice may be on its way to you. If at any point your case should become more than 30 days outside our normal processing time, and you haven't received a written decision or update from us within the last 60 days, you can help us by calling customer service and letting us know. We will research your case, see what needs to be done to get it processed, and get back to you with an explanation. The extra 30 days is to allow time for any notice from us to reach you as we process your case. Your case is within (thier) normal process. Working on Feb puts your filling later not before cases they are working on. Like others said you wont get much info from them at this time. We never could, just had to wait. Dnoblett got you on tract he is right on. Our noa2 for k3 i-130 took almost 8 months.
  19. Good luck from us also. Had similar neighbor/wife's English class friend in same awful situation. Fortunately, she has been attending church since in the US and I suggested (due to limited finances) that she share her story with fellow Chinese church attendees and have been recently told they are helping her get out of lousy marriage and acquire places to stay. Breaks our heart to see this lovely lady (60 years old) go through such anguish, BUT her miserable, soon to be ex-husband, is dying and she will finally be rid of this man and her family who have treated her so poorly this last year and a half. (he basically just used her to care for him as his health fails. (had to edit my previous angry response), but I must say, my wife and I were distraught and felt so helpless when she would call crying, and hyper-ventilating, and feeling so trapped. It was very sad and I hope your gal has a happy ending too. : ) No need to edit feel the same way. Know well the helpless. She does the same, calls at midnight sometimes. She is in a by the week place or something, she calls and hangs up wife has to call her back. She calls maybe two of three times a month for about 4 months now. I can tell she is getting advice from people she don't understand. I think the only resource she has is wal-mart co-workers and locals from a small texas town. Will get wifey to find out how shes doing now. Not heard from her for about two weeks. Perhaps pm me and my wife can offer a comforting voice if both are willing to share phone numbers. Breaks my heart to hear of somebody living this kind of life...not quite the dream they were hoping for....Please let us know if we can offer some verbal support. : ) ...won't be getting e-mails till the end of this week. Thanks much!!! Give me a little time will pm you. She has never asked us for anything but advice. I didnt mention this family is chinese what part of china they are from not sure of. Sorry about that. Next time wife talks with her will get her number. You got that right seems her dream turned into a nightmare from day one.

  21. Good point, made me think of another problem. We have italkbb but our phone we found out was not wifi friendly. She couldnt access the wireless because of that. Maybe not why,probably a long shot. Netgear had no problem finding the IP with the software that came with our router and usb adapters
  22. So carbon is BAD so tax the hell out of it and there will be less. Overpopulation is BAD so reduce taxes on someone who has more kids and increase handouts for unmarried mothers times the number of kids. That gets you what? Pretty much broke us normal folks. .Gov control or is that the new world order? They did solve that problem in Star Trek First Contact. Forgot where but did see on the web where some so called leaders realy are trying to find out how based on a few parts of that movie they did away with all your problems as they see it. Everyone is equal, money is a thing of the past. No more borders we are one big happy family fighting the borg. Good movie but realy makes you think some .govs maybe most lost site of us long ago.
  23. You are right Randy, I don't need any bad luck... maybe a kind Mod can move it to a more appropiate place... I was just having a little fun like others have in the past, although it made me nervous doing so. yes, I know this about the DHCP.... it's not the router.... she can use the laptop with a cable... just not wireless.... it is a setting on the laptop, they had the same problem at the computer store, but the person who finally connected there was not there when I was. My wife's laptop is the same but she could access my time warner wireless modem ok useing the laptop card she used in china. We got our own Netgear so could stop the extra 10 bucks a month. Didnt have a problem useing the Netgear router and Netgear usb adapter. We did have a problem useing diffrerent routers with different cards. Sorry not much help.
