    <content type="html"><![CDATA[&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;newsbody&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Atlanta, GA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/24/2020 -- Political power comes at a cost, and money isn&amp;#039;t the only currency people are interested in. No one understands this more than author Dr. Glenn Toby, a man who went from sleeping on trains in New York City to running an international holdings company and talent management companies.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
In his new book, The Asian Power League, Dr. Glenn Toby examines the intersections of business, politics, race, and power through the eyes of Michael Hy-yung, heir to his father&amp;#039;s successful business ventures who pivots his own goals towards politics in a bid to be the next and greatest President of the United States. To get there though, he aligns himself with the Asian Power League, a secretive yet deeply influential political organization. Through this alliance, Michael reaches new heights of success, but also must come to learn the true price of power.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
The Asian Power League draws from Toby&amp;#039;s own experiences with racism and business in America, examining the crossroads of the Black and Asian experiences&amp;mdash;where they intersect and where they diverge - and the power that these types of experiences offer through an exciting story of political intrigue. This novel offers a &amp;quot;short pathway to power, politics, and the human experience&amp;quot; as told by a businessman and philanthropist who has a breadth of personal experience in all of those fields.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
This novel speaks to the power of the individual and the power of dedicated communities, all while offering a fictional window to the very real underbelly of the powerful in America.

    <content type="html"><![CDATA[&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;newsbody&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Dallas, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/11/2020 -- Starting October 2nd, USCIS fees will be significantly rising. Attorneys at Davis &amp;amp; Associates are encouraging all eligible to file their application with USCIS as soon as possible.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Because USCIS&amp;#039;s budget must be covered by people seeking immigration benefits and not taxpayers, they reassess their fees every few years to ensure their financial stability. It&amp;#039;s been almost 4 years since the last fee increase in 2016. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Of particular note would be the fee changes for political asylum applications (in the past, they were fully subsidized by other filing fees), as well as the 345 percent increase to form N-470. The N-470 is used by someone wishing to be outside the US while preserving their continuous presence for naturalization purposes. Similarly, the Naturalization application will increase by 83%---the new fee will be $1,170. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
USCIS is also changing some of its policies. Previously, in certain instances, USCIS was including employment authorizations and travel permits as a courtesy based on other applications paid. Starting October 2nd, these applications will require their own fee and will no longer be provided complimentary.  &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Individuals may review USCIS fee changes on the &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://gldlaw.com/&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Davis &amp;amp; Associates&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; website.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Davis &amp;amp; Associates understands the burden immigration fees can put on families and encourage families and businesses to file cases before October 2nd when possible to avoid the fee increase. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
In addition, the law firm offers &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://gldlaw.com/contact-us-for-a-free-consultation/&amp;quot;&amp;gt;free immigration consultations&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; for family immigration cases where applicants may ask questions and get a quote for services. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Davis &amp;amp; Associates has a robust immigration practice including adjustment of status, green card, &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://gldlaw.com/immigration/immigration-appeals/&amp;quot;&amp;gt;immigration appeals&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, deportation, asylum, &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://gldlaw.com/immigration/citizenship-naturalization/&amp;quot;&amp;gt;citizenship&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, and a vast portfolio of business immigration services.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Davis &amp;amp; Associates is the immigration law firm of choice in Houston &amp;amp; North Texas including Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Frisco, McKinney and surrounding areas. Their attorneys provide expert legal counsel for all aspects of immigration law, including deportation defense, writs of habeas corpus and mandamus, family-sponsored immigration, employment-sponsored immigration, investment immigration, employer compliance, temporary visas for work and college, permanent residence, naturalization, consular visa processing, waivers, and appeals.

    <content type="html"><![CDATA[&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;newsbody&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;subheadline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;SD Chinese Historical Museum presents a first-of-its-kind exhibit that takes viewers from Old China to Contemporary La Jolla.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;San Diego, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/22/2018 -- The San Diego Chinese Historical Museum (SDCHM) will be debuting a new exhibit, The Life &amp;amp; Deeds of Dr. Shih-Liang Chien, a rare glimpse into a renowned Chinese family&amp;#039;s heirlooms and family precepts, or words to live by. This exhibit provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to observe family heirlooms and portraits of a well-respected Chinese family of royalty, leading scientists and university presidents, that has expanded to San Diego. This exhibit will be on view in Downtown San Diego at SDCHM&amp;#039;s Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Building from February 22 &amp;ndash; April 8.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;quot;The mission of SDCHM is to share a piece of Chinese history, and this exhibit does exactly that. The images unfold in front of your eyes, taking you from Old China to contemporary La Jolla,&amp;quot; said Dr. Lilly Cheng, Director of the Confucius Institute at San Diego State University and former Board Chair of SDCHM. &amp;quot;We are delighted to bring this rare bit of history to share with San Diegans, as it&amp;#039;s the only exhibit of its kind and explores family precepts, family portraits and family values.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
While the exhibit highlights as far as six generations of the Chien family, it pays special attention to two people: Dr. Shih-Liang Chien and his son, Dr. Shu Chien, who are both highly honored for their scientific achievements. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
- Dr. Shih-Liang Chien served in many prestigious and scholarly positions during his life, namely as President of National Taiwan University and President of Academia Sinica, a preeminent research instituation in Taiwan.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
- His son, Dr. Shu Chien is a local San Diegan, serving as the President of the Institute of Engineering in Medicine at UCSD. Dr. Shu Chien received the highest honor possible in his industry, the National Medal of Science from President Obama in 2011 for &amp;quot;pioneering work in cardiovascular physiology and bioengineering.&amp;quot; Dr. Chien is also the first to win science awards from two presidents, the second being in 2009 when he was awarded the ROC Presidential Science Price by President Ma Ying-Jeou.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Exhibit visitors will have the opportunity to view exclusive family artifacts, photographs and Chinese heirlooms, including rare collections of family precepts, i.e., principles on how to be a good person and global citizen, in both English and Chinese. They will also have the chance to examine an entire collection of Dr. Shih-Liang Chien and his son&amp;#039;s books and manuscripts on display. Essentially, the exhibit is a rare representation of a Chinese family&amp;#039;s legacy and is a unique learning opportunity for all.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Event information:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Building: 328 J St., San Diego, CA 92101&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;

    <content type="html"><![CDATA[&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;newsbody&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;subheadline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Kimono artisans and stylist plan to bring Kimono to New York Fashion Week in February 2016 for Saving Kimono Artisans. The Kickstarter campaign for this project, organized by non-profit organizations, is on-going until July 31, 2015.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/01/2015 -- Kimono artisans and art of kimono creation is on the verge of a crisis because of reduction of kimono market, aging of artisans, and lack of their successors in Japan. For expanding kimono markets to the world, kimono artisans stand out from their workshops and plan to show their kimono outfits on stage at New York Fashion Week in February 2016, produced by a kimono fashion stylist, Hiromi Asai. This project is organized by two non-profit organizations, Kimono Hiro Inc. and Kimono Artisan Kyoto, in US and Japan, respectively. For this project, Kickstarter campaign is ongoing to raise crowdfunding over $50,000 for 50 days until July 31.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://&amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/530372888/authentic-kimono-on-stage-at-new-york-fashion-week&amp;quot; target=&amp;quot;_blank&amp;quot;&amp;gt;http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/530372888/authentic-kimono-on-stage-at-new-york-fashion-week&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;https://&amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/530372888/authentic-kimono-on-stage-at-new-york-fashion-week&amp;quot; target=&amp;quot;_blank&amp;quot;&amp;gt;http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/530372888/authentic-kimono-on-stage-at-new-york-fashion-week&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Hiromi Asai is New York-Florida based internationally acclaimed kimono-stylist and designer. Kimono Artisan Kyoto is a leading association of kimono textile artisans in Kyoto, Japan, who use the most prominent age-old techniques to make kimonos. Their plan is to produce the world&amp;#039;s first Kimono Fashion Show at New York Fashion Week. They will show authentic kimonos by the catwalk fashion show as an official attendee of New York Fashion Week (NYFW).&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Kimono is a Japanese garment with many unique features, but Hiromi always thinks that kimono will be recognized as a universal formal wear that is beyond cultural and ethnic boundaries. They have two aims on this project. The first aims to demonstrate authentic kimono beauty and elegance at one of the biggest world fashion venues, which will arouse great interest in kimono all over the world. People who see this show will rediscover and wonder that &amp;quot;old-fashioned&amp;quot; kimono is really a &amp;quot;modern&amp;quot; dress with huge capacity of variation. As reported by major media, kimono industry and art of kimono creation is on the verge of a crisis and most of kimono manufacturers are estimated to discontinue their business in a decade. The second aim is to encourage kimono artisans, and make the kimono industry re-flourish through making bigger market of kimono in the world. Their ultimate goal is to pass art of kimono creation to the next generation.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
About the campaign&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
Their Kickstarter campaign started on June 11 and finishes on July 31. They plan to finance $50,000 for 50 days. Now they reaches to almost 30% of their financing goal and are thought to be one of the promising campaigns. This project will be the world&amp;#039;s first challenge to organize the standard fashion show on New York Fashion Week, funded by Kickstarter.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;
