Filing N-400 for naturalization

Article Abstract:

A former associate editor describes the new immigration rules in the US shifting laws which suggest that all immigrants may be considered unwelcome guests unless they apply to become part of the nation's family and prove they have undergone sufficient adaptation to become 'naturalized'. Eligibility for US citizenship requires that an applicant should be a resident for at least five years where the Paperwork Reduction Act Notice estimates to complete Form N-400 for naturalization.

The trapezoidal mind

Article Abstract:

A writer describes trapezoidalism as the flypaper to which its devotees are stuck where its theories have no internal, self-earned, or objective validity and no inherent attraction for the mind. Trapezoids value literacy and they read rabidly, but their reading is narrowly focused, repitative, uncritical, partisan.
