Indian-born K.R. Sridhar is the Chief Executive Officer of Bloom Energy. The company is in the news today for introducing the Bloom Box, a small energy "server" that promises to revolutionize energy production. According to CNET: At the heart of the box is the Bloom fuel cell, shown here. Bloom Energy says the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology provides a cleaner, more reliable, and more affordable alternative to both today's electric grid as well as traditional renewable energy sources. The box provides distributed power generation, allowing customers to efficiently create their own electricity on site, the company said. The...

I am currently employed by a large US-based multinational firm on an H-1B visa. My 6 year limit on H1 expires on Nov 27, 2011.
My employer filed Labor Certification for my employment-based Green Card (EB2) over a year ago (on March 1st, 2010).
Since it has been more than a year since Labor has been filed, I am assuming my employer can file for a 1-year extension to my H-1B visa 6 months before it expires (that is on June 27th, 2011). Also, in the meantime, if my Labor and subsequent I-140 are approved, I am assuming my employer can file for 3-year extension to my H-1B.
Question 1: Are these assumptions above correct?
Question 2: Can I quit my job and join another firm after the 1 or 3 year extension is granted? That is will another employer be able to file an H1 petition on my behalf for the extended H1 period (that is beyond 6 years) - even though the extension was granted because of a Labor Certification filed by the previous employer?
I plan to get married to an American Citizen in September. Once I get married, I will obviously file for a marriage-based green card.
Question 3: Given the above, can I quit my job and join another firm now (before my H1 extension is filed)? What are my risks?
If I do stay with my current employer - once I get married, I am assuming that I can file for my marriage based green card (form I-130) and adjustment of status (I-485) concurrently.
Question 4: Is the above assumption correct?
Question 5: Can I also file for EAD concurrently with my I-485? How soon can I expect to leave my current employer and take up a job based on the EAD / marriage-based green card?
Appreciate any guidance.
Thanks

Unfortunately, the only solution is to take your camera to a Nikon repair center. It seems that the D2H's meter failing is alarmingly common, from what reports one reads online. If your camera is yet under warranty, then you're in luck. Otherwise, it may be a US$200 - $300 repair. :(
