  3. What we need is to make the Appe iPhone into a secret camera recording device...
  4. Good to see how many Sikhs here supporting the Arabs in Gaza. The government of which wouldn't even allow you to build a Sikh Gurdwara on it's lands because of you being non-muslims. The very government that is run by a Islamofascist terrorist organisation. Well done people. Good to see you supporting these shud-dai's. When a people vote in a fascist organization to govern them, don't be surprised when you see the brunt of war on their heads. What you sow, is what you reap.
  5. If we are going to have a Satellite TV channel dedicated to Sikhs, then you so got to have this guy on it. :D
  6. Explain to me what is not linked to our nervous system? :rolleyes: Hair gives a level of protection against the Sun.
  7. I would say I'm liberal in terms of the drugs policy in the UK, conservative in terms of crime and punishment, and right-wing in terms of immigration. In the UK we have an unoffical two-party system, labour vs. tories. It works by labour messing things up and then the conservatives cleaning the mess up, (and then labour come back into power and get the credit for it!).
  8. India woman bouncer a big hit Amandeep Kaur's job is to keep an eye on the women guests t's Saturday night and a long queue has formed in front of Score, a hip nightclub in the northern Indian city of Chandigarh. The hefty entry fee of 1,000 rupees ($25) per couple is no deterrent for the city's bold and beautiful. Security is tight - guests pay at the counter, have their arms stamped and are then frisked. Male guests are searched by male bouncers, women by Amandeep Kaur. She is Chandigarh's first and only woman bouncer - a rarity anywhere in India, but more so in a male-dominated society like Punjab's. 'Like a son' Punjab has one of the worst sex ratios in the country - here a woman's life is often valued far less than a man's. "My father never made me feel like I was a girl. He always used to tell me - 'you are like a son to me'," says Ms Kaur. She is only 22 and has been three weeks in her job. During the day, she presents news programmes on a local television channel. Four nights a week, she dons black jeans and a black T-shirt and takes her place outside Score. As Chandigarh's rich and beautiful women line up to enter, they have to pass through Ms Kaur's hands. So why did she choose this unusual job? "Some time ago, I came here to attend a party with some friends. I saw lots of male bouncers, but there was no female bouncer. "So I told the hotel staff I wanted to be a bouncer. They said that's not possible. It's a job only a man can do." Ms Kaur set out to prove them wrong. When she first took up the job, her friends and neighbours were shocked. "Why?" everyone wanted to know. Her response: "Why not?" Anupama Bharadwaj, managing director of Score, says: "We were looking for some time for a female bouncer. With Kaur around, our women customers feel safer." And the guests have only nice things to say about the new woman on the door. Feeling safe "I had never heard of a lady bouncer but it's only fair that women get checked too since all the men are checked before they are allowed in. Also, it makes us feel safer if there is a woman bouncer. And she seems quite sweet," says Nupur, an architect. Ms Kaur's work alternates between being at the door (to check those coming in) and inside (to ensure the women guests behave). "My job is to keep an eye on the women guests - sometimes they get drunk and become a nuisance. "I also have to make sure that they don't smoke outside of the designated area, especially in the ladies' toilet. And that they don't misbehave with anyone. If I see anyone doing anything wrong, I give them a warning. If they don't pay any heed, I throw them out." Surjit Singh, who heads the team of bouncers at the nightclub, speaks highly of Ms Kaur's work. "Earlier, some women would come in and cause trouble, they would harass men, and we couldn't do anything about them. We've also had women trying to sneak in with drugs, but we couldn't check them. All this has stopped since Kaur has come in." Ms Kaur has had no special training to be a bouncer. But for the job she is in, being fit is essential. "I work out in the gym for two hours every morning. I eat a protein-rich diet. I'm very strong, both physically and mentally." And most guests seem to take her strength on board - not many, even when they are drunk, mess around with her. But sometimes, things can - and do - get ugly. "Last week, this girl was trying to force another in the toilet to smoke. I went in and asked her to stop. When she didn't, I took away her cigarette and put it out. She lit another one! I had to throw them out," she says. Fears The matter did not end there. "Once outside, her boyfriend threatened me. He said you would have to pay for what you have done. "I don't feel scared but sometimes a thought comes to the back of my mind. I'm safe in the club. But once I finish my duty and leave at 2am, I'm on my own. What happens if they come in a group?" It's about 11pm and inside the club, the party is rocking. The bouncers, including Ms Kaur, are strung out across the floor, watching for trouble. We step out because more guests are coming in and Ms Kaur has to frisk the women before they enter. A group of young men are outside. Single men are allowed in only if they are regulars and pay a cover charge of 1,500 rupees ($37). Checking over, Ms Kaur goes back in and does the rounds - the loos are checked and it all seems under control. Doors shut at half past midnight. We can now go inside and stay inside. But for Ms Kaur, as long as there are guests, she cannot relax. And as the evening passes, guests get high on alcohol and music. One couple have to be escorted out by the bouncers - the man has had way too much to drink and is swaying from side to side. Another young man comes crashing down the stairs and falls at my feet. One of the bouncers helps him up. Once on his feet, he lurches towards the dance floor. The bouncers let him be. There are no more incidents. Amandeep Kaur and the others in her team can now breathe easy - their long night is over. Until the next one. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7456154.stm
  9. It’s a good job the police federation chose to use such an excellent portrayal of a Sikh in their latest campain. Now the non-Sikh public will have such a good understanding of what a Sikh should look like.
  10. ਕਹਤ ਕਬੀਰ ਭਲੇ ਅਸਵਾਰਾ ॥ कहत कबीर भले असवारा ॥ Kahaṯ Kabīr bẖalė asvārā. Says Kabeer, those are the best riders, ਬੇਦ ਕਤੇਬ ਤੇ ਰਹਹਿ ਨਿਰਾਰਾ ॥੩॥੩੧॥ बेद कतेब ते रहहि निरारा ॥३॥३१॥ Bėḏ kaṯėb ṯė raheh nirārā. ||3||31|| who remain detached from the Vedas, the Koran and the Bible. ||3||31|| ਛਾਡਿ ਕਤੇਬ ਰਾਮੁ ਭਜੁ ਬਉਰੇ ਜੁਲਮ ਕਰਤ ਹੈ ਭਾਰੀ ॥ छाडि कतेब रामु भजु बउरे जुलम करत है भारी ॥ Cẖẖād kaṯėb rām bẖaj ba­urė julam karaṯ hai bẖārī. Give up your holy books, and remember the Lord, you fool, and stop oppressing others so badly. ਕਬੀਰੈ ਪਕਰੀ ਟੇਕ ਰਾਮ ਕੀ ਤੁਰਕ ਰਹੇ ਪਚਿਹਾਰੀ ॥੪॥੮॥ कबीरै पकरी टेक राम की तुरक रहे पचिहारी ॥४॥८॥ Kabīrai pakrī tėk rām kī ṯurak rahė pacẖihārī. ||4||8|| Kabeer has grasped hold of the Lord's Support, and the Muslims have utterly failed. ||4||8||
  11. Benazir Bhutto was part of a political dynasty. Here she is with India's foreign minister in 1972 in Simla, where her father, President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, met India's Indira Gandhi.
  12. Open up the Sri Dasam Granth and the Guru Granth and have a read.
  13. The Guru's believed in peoples right to believe in whatever they wanted as long as it did not incite violent, aggressive, detrimental, or criminal actions against anyone. They did not respect many parts of the islamic belief system, such as the veiling of women, halal meat, fasting, jizya, dhimmi status, mohamed having sex with a nine year old girl, him having slave-woman whom he also had sex with, etc etc. Which brings me to the point… If I described to you a leader of men, who had imperialistic ambitions, who approved torture, who allowed his men to rape women and kill men, women and children. Who did this in the middle east. Some might think this man to be George Bush, but the man I'm referring to is Mohamed, the imperialist war-lord of the muslims.
  14. I don't agree with the term Sikh Terrorist, but I DO agree with the term Islamic Terrorism. Instead of appeasing these mohammedans, why don't you and the rest of your ike read the following book. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Politically-Incorr...8833&sr=8-1
  15. I can't believe she did this all for a s*llah!! Anyway here's a picture of the charming lady. I would post some background articles to this but the mods, (sorry I meant the frivolous censors) tend to delete them.
  16. Well done Tanu Kaur you've hit the mark. That is spot on. :TH:
  17. Forget about the Film, this is entirely about the Comic books written by Alan Moore! Anyway Hollywood has a good relationship with Sikhism. http://www.flylip.com/news/images/65-11981...e12180701-1.jpg
  18. I not sure where you got your translation from but that line is not correct. ras ghorrae pleasure of horses ras saejaa ma(n)dhar pleasure of sleeping in bed ras meet(h)aa pleasure of sweets (meethai) ras maas pleasure of meat This does bring into question the quality of the translation of the other lines.
  19. The previous chapter was named second Best comic in 2007 by Time magazine.
  20. "If You Were Made Jathedaar Of Akaal Takht Saaheb..., what would you do?" I'd do what any other self-respecting Sikh leader would do. Initiate an expensive project (typically the building of a new Gurdwara) giving my family members the top jobs with over inflated wages and then secretly siphon off some of the Sangats donations to build my big kotee somewhere in the Punjab. Then quietly step down from my chair and 'disappear', leaving any financial debts to the Sangat.
