Ring your friends and family to get them to vote - even just getting into the second round would be good exposure... Only 8 hours left!

252 views but only 39 votes asking the USA to help get Justice for all the innocent mothers/fathers/brothers and sisters who raped, butchered & burnt alive. Some of the perpetrators of which are still free and in Government offices today. :cry: To the sangat who havent voted, this is absolutely nothing to do with Sikh Politics or Khalistan but instead for Justice and closure to the tens of thousands of families who lost loved ones just because they were Sikhs.

Even if nothing comes out it, it is still increased exposure to the world of the atrocities that occurred. Anyway, First round ends midnight tonight... So we have approx 14 hours to get over 100 more votes. I just sent out e-mails to everyone I know and posted it on my Facebook profile. Everyone should do the same. Here is the e-mail I sent which you can forward to all your contacts. Just make sure that links comes out correctly as this forum seems to shorten it.

Any photos from the event?

There is a website called Change.org which gets ideas from the general public and passes them over to Barack Obama's Administration. One idea which has been submitted is: Recognize the 1984 Sikh Genocide by India and press for Justice Please go to the website below and vote on this idea, you need to register but it seriously only takes a couple of minutes maximum and the idea has the chance to become real policy for America. We need to be in the top 3 in the Genocide category by midnight 31st December 2008 to make it into the second round. https://www.change.org/ideas/view/recognize...ess_for_justice The final top 10 ideas will be presented to the Obama Administration on Inauguration Day and will be supported by a national lobbying campaign run by Change.org, MySpace, and more than a dozen leading nonprofits after the Inauguration. Please forward this via email/ facebook /myspace etc as time is running out if we want to make it into the second round! Just make sure that links comes out correctly as this forum seems to shorten it. --------- UPDATE --------- We have managed to get into third place and if we stay there till midnight the idea is through into the next round. But that doesn't mean we should stop voting. To the sangat who havent voted, this is absolutely nothing to do with Sikh Politics or Khalistan but instead for Justice and closure to the tens of thousands of families who lost loved ones just because they were Sikhs. The least this will do is increase exposure to the world of the atrocities that occurred.

Ranjit Singh, I think his name was who was pro Khalistan did an amazing job. Clearly comes across as a professional individual who knows his stuff and has the facts/information to back it all up. Well done!

Ours has worked fine... The second CD with English Katha on is AMAZING. Highly recommend anyone who hasn't got it yet to get it.

For it to be Tuesday 16th November, the year would have to be 2004. Either it is a VERY old page or they totally got the dates messed up.

:pray: Dhan Guru Dhan Guru Pyare

I think we are maybe too quick to judge. Although it doesn't look like he is just standing, we cannot see a chair, he could have been kneeling! All in all, I thought the video clip came across very well and showed Sikhi in a very positive light (bar the holy book reference).

All 6 Gurdwara's in Nottingham, England have tables and chairs. Most (not all) also have a little area to sit on the floor.

To say Guru Ji stopped at 5 cause only 5 stood up is completely wrong and makes it 'accidental'. Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj knew everything and chose 5 for a reason. Here's something I grabbed from SikhWiki which may explain the reason. In Sikh theology, as in the Indian classical tradition generally, panj or panch, the numeral five, has a special significance. Guru Nanak in Japji refers to five khands, i.e. stages or steps in spiritual development, and calls a spiritually awakened person a panch. The ancient Indian socio-political institution panchayat meant a council of five elders. Something like an inner council of five existed even in the time of the earlier Gurus: five Sikhs accompanied Guru Arjan on his last journey to Lahore; the five were each given 100 armed Sikhs to command by his successor, Guru Hargobind; Guru Tegh Bahadur, set out on his journey to Delhi to court execution attended by five Sikhs.

There are a lot of Content Management Systems out there. I have used both Drupal and Joomla and out of them both, I preferred Joomla. HOWEVER, it depends on what you want to use it for... Some of the above CMS's can be overkill (way to complex for what you need). Like, I am doing a website at the moment in which I had to create a website which was easily updated and added to. For this I decided to use WordPress because it is EXTREMELY easy to use and update and it had all the features we needed. Created a custom theme & navigation and you cannot tell it is using WordPress, just looks like a normal website. WordPress was just WAY better in this scenario then using Drupal or Joomla. If you let us know (either here or by PM) what you are wanting to do with the website - we would happily point you in the right direction

Defo tick 'Other' and Sikh

Had Pro Evo 4, 5, 6 and 2008 before but finally converted over to FIFA this year. Tried FIFA 2009 & Pro Evo 2009 this year and I thought FIFA was much better so went with that.

VJKK VJKF... Sorry for not responding sooner. To me, all of them look amazing. Thanks for taking the time out to do them. I posted on SikhSangat on behalf of Mandeep Singh from iSikhi hence not being able to give more info. I have passed all designs to him and I will let you know whatever he says. Unless he posts straight on here himself (he has the link)!

I went yesterday and it was amazing - very professional and very emotional with some aunties going out crying. I recommend it to everyone. It was on ITV news all day today and even saw it in the A frame newspaper billboards outside shops in Derby Can be seen on ITV by going to: http://www.itvlocal.com/central/news/ -> Choose Latest News -> East -> Monday (24/11/08) And the Musuem bit starts 6min 30secs into the News.

How good is your punjabi? Reason I ask is because I dont think you will never get the same essence meaning in english as you will in punjabi/gurmukhi. Would some simple punjabi katha get the message across? There is lots of that around.

:1singh1: That's great news... Great inspiration to youth around the world. Its time we youth started getting into the Gurdwara committees and making changes for the better.

if you have the PS3 version, you can only play other PS3 users online and if you have PC version you can only play PC users online.
