Main Bhangra Discussion / Bhangra Empire goes INTERNATIONAL!
« on: December 22, 2011, 02:56:16 PM »
So Bhangra Empire has done a lot of "big" things in terms of recognition on a national level. Now they are crossing larger bodies of water and taking their routine to the INTERNATIONAL platform.


Bhangra Empire - Special Announcement - 2012



This type of exposure for newcomers to Bhangra is just awesome, so I'm glad Bhangra Empire is doing a lot to spread the cultural dance.


Enjoy!

Off-Topic / Hey! Punjabi is a Pakistani language, too! *MUST WATCH*
« on: December 10, 2011, 10:39:37 PM »
I had been waiting for this topic to be addressed for quite some time and Stephen Gucciardi aka the "Gora Punjabi" spoke about it in his most recent video. For those who don't know, he's a Religious Studies major/Italian & South Asian studies minor out of The University of Toronto and he has a lot of linguistics knowledge on many of the South Asian languages.


Enjoy it everyone and please share it with your friends:


Hey! Punjabi is a Pakistani language, too!


The ending of the video sends out a great message and I hope that all of us Punjabi's can stay united to keep the language & culture alive,

For those that keep up with the Bhangra Empire blog by Omer (former dancer/now "coach"), he stated that Bhangra Empire will NOT be performing at Elite 8 2012 in one of his latest blog posts: http://bhangraempire.com/blog/2011/11/17/elite-8-2012-predictions-and-thoughts/

The 4th paragraph states:

"That being said, we will not be performing at Elite 8 this year. Though we didn’t get an ‘official’ invite, we were contacted by the committee a couple of months ago to discuss the possibility of returning to Elite 8 for a 3rd straight year. Again, I went to the team to see if they would be interested, and this time they were not. So we let the committee know right then that we were not interested this year. Why, you ask? Well, the main reason is we have been to Washington DC 4 times now. We wanted to focus more on a local competition in the Bay Area instead. And of course, we assumed the judging would be the same. And at this point, for us, it did not make sense to return to a competition that placed us near the bottom each year even though we put on extremely clean, energetic, creative, and entertaining performances both years. Should we have won first both years? I’m not saying that, but at the same time, it is difficult for a team to get motivated to practice for a performance that they have lost before even stepping foot on stage, and that has been the case both years at Elite."


You can give credit to Detective Basim for this finding ;) I guess it's time to alter those predictions everyone.

Off-Topic / Earn FREE stuff: Lockerz
« on: September 29, 2009, 05:03:27 PM »
www.lockerz.com

It's pretty much a site where you get points for answering a poll each day (it's like 1 question that takes 5 seconds) and you can trade in your points for stuff like a bunch of different electronics. It's a 100% legit website, NOT a scam (do some google searches), and your e-mail address does not get spammed with anything. The CEO of Lockerz was the the Vice President of Amazon.com along with the CMO of American Eagle and they are backed by Liberty Media.

The only problem is that you have to be referred to the program by someone. So, whoever wants to join, send an email to Im2bz2p345@gmail.com and I'll send you the invite ASAP. I get 2 points per invite and you get 2 pts for joining :)

Also, November 15 marks the end of the beta stages of lockerz, and I've heard that the points you make in the beta will be worth more in the first official version. So it's better to start as soon as you can so you can get more points!

P.S. -Very sorry in advance if it's not allowed here, just trying to get the word out. Mods please delete this thread if posting this type of thread it's not allowed. Thanks.

I thought this video was well made and enjoyed watching it. It's always refreshing to take a look at things on a global perspective (seeing the "big picture").

Hope you all like it.
