The Sun's entry into bucolic Taurus lures you into the belief that relationships can be placid. But the conflict returns when you remember that you're not interested in compromising your zest for life. Passion, with all its complexity, is still more important to you than comfort alone.<br /><br />4/18/2009:<br />The Seattle Comedy Blog (<a href="http://www.seattlecomedyblog.com/">www.seattlecomedyblog.com</a>) got a great shout out from Peter Greyy from the stage at the Moore Theater last night at the Doug Benson show.

When the Comedy Underground decided to open it's doors to local artists who use humor and beguiling sensibilities in their work, they called on Urban Craft Uprising, organizers of the largest indie craft show in the Pacific Northwest. A dozen indie crafters and artists will be vending their goods (apparel, jewelry, toys, art, kid's stuff, etc.) in the Comedy Underground lobby located at 109 S.

She has asked U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which arrested 28 illegal immigrants in the raid, for answers.<br /><br />"I want to get to the bottom of this as well," she said. She said work-site enforcement needs to be focused on the employers.<br /><br />In a statement, an ICE official said the agency conducted the raid after information from two "gang members" led agents to start an investigation at the company.<br /><br />"Follow-up investigation uncovered a potentially large number of illegally employed workers. ICE conducted the operation in order to identify and, if appropriate, apprehend any unauthorized workers and to further determine potential criminal activity," ICE spokeswoman Kelly Nantel said in an e-mail from Washington, D.C.<br /><br />The raid at Yamato Engine Specialists was the first work-site action ICE has taken since Obama took office, said Sean Smith, a spokesman at Homeland Security in Washington, D.C.<br /><br />Obama, who appointed Napolitano, has signaled a shift in immigration policy that would rely less on work-site enforcement, focusing instead on employers who hire illegal immigrants and on overall immigration reform.<br /><br />ICE agents rounded up 25 men and three women at the engine shop, all Mexicans except for a Honduran, a Salvadoran and a Guatemalan. Except for three people freed on humanitarian grounds, those arrested are at a detention center in Tacoma, awaiting deportation proceedings.<br /><br />In a statement Tuesday, ICE officials said many of the people obtained the jobs using fake Social Security numbers and other counterfeit documents.<br /><br />Shirin Dhanani Makalai, whose family owns the business, said the raid came after months of cooperating with ICE on an audit, which included providing employee rosters to federal authorities on several occasions. She said the family-owned business does not advocate hiring illegal immigrants.<br /><br />"We try to stay within the guidelines, within the law," Makalai said Tuesday.<br /><br />Makalai added that the company did not knowingly hire illegal immigrants, and that employers have no clear way of checking an employee's legal status. Tuesday's raid marked the second time ICE had taken workers from the factory, but Makalai said that after an audit in 2006, agents conducted individual interviews, instead of a raid.<br /><br />She said that family members - who are originally from Uganda - estimate about 60 agents came into the sprawling factory and asked management to round up the workers. She said the business is losing about $60,000 a day and lost four highly skilled workers.<br /><br />"We were completely blind-sided," Makalai said.<br /><br />For immigrant advocacy groups, the raid was a surprise as well.<br /><br />Marissa Graciosa of the Fair Immigration Reform Movement, a Washington, D.C.-based advocacy group, said it was deeply disappointing that ICE has executed a raid since Obama took office. She called the raids destructive and ineffective.<br /><br />"We urge President Obama to deliver on his promise of change by stopping the raids, and signing just and humane immigration reform into law," Graciosa said.<br /><br />Immigrant advocates in Seattle called on Obama to place a moratorium on raids until there's immigration reform from Congress.<br /><br />Steven Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies, which favors stricter enforcement of immigration laws, said Napolitano's call to review the raid goes along with an expectation that Obama will slash work-site raids. Camarota said such raids should be part of an overall immigration policy.<br /><br />"I think that the expectation is that (Obama) will do a whole lot less enforcement, period," Camarota said.<br /><br />---<br /><br />Associated Press Writer Eileen Sullivan in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.<br /><br />---<br /><br />On the Net:<br /><br />Department of Homeland Security, <a href="http://www.dhs.gov/">http://www.dhs.gov/</a><br /><br />U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, <a href="http://www.ice.gov/">http://www.ice.gov/</a><br /><br />Migration Policy Institute, <a href="http://www.migrationpolicy.org/pubs/DHS-Feb09.pdf">http://www.migrationpolicy.org/pubs/DHS-Feb09.pdf</a><br /><br /><br />other related links:<br /><br /><a href="http://clpmag.org/content/contentpages/2009/multimedia-inside-the-northwest-detention-center.php">http://clpmag.org/content/contentpages/2009/multimedia-inside-the-northwest-detention-center.php</a><br /><br /><a href="http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2008053884_detention16m.html">http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2008053884_detention16m.html</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.hatefreezone.org/article.php?list=type&type=56">http://www.hatefreezone.org/article.php?list=type&type=56</a><br /><br />.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046723820871723623.post-53190050499506014992009-02-26T15:14:00.001-08:002009-02-26T15:19:04.054-08:00March First Thursday<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgerm5W3ZwHC0ueTYs3gjWDeAv8KbXp-n99x1dW0NoiFLG3UCnqNBBeZP0Z92m5GemOep9GBgqSlgk6CypwINSa6smuUnUtjQ3W7VoZX7x1cU6MH0TfPKq59K7Z_WZ6VB1QFGnmIFiQDak/s1600-h/2009firstthursdaymarch.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer;
