I might be on the wrong track here, but one option for assistance with US tax forms for foreign nationals might be to apply for a US stock trading account through a local stockbroker. I setup a US trading account several years ago here in A

Acer have been using carbon fiber on the cover/screen backing of their Ferrari series laptops for over 4 years. I've had one for a bit over 3 years and it's still in great shape, despite quite a few knocks in transit. Carbon fiber's a good

Ashamed to admit it (especially here) but I still use Hotmail. Why? You can use a local client and send/recieve via WebDav. As a consultant I'm regularly working on site at companies where they have everything except port 80 blocked. So IMA

Architecture astronauts should take careful note of points 7 and 9. I've read some obsessive-compulsive discusions regarding RESTful design around here lately. You don't see much focus on the customer.

The experience of teaching improved my public speaking significantly. I think most people hate public speaking because the initial experiences they have are for short periods of time when they're nervous and full of adrenaline. That adrenal
