Request for help from Sukhjinder Sidhu (a great sevadar)

Hi Guys



This is a request for help. It might sound a bit strange but it regards the categories of Ajit Weekly. Basically I've created a corpus of Ajit Weekly articles and I'm trying to categorise them based on Ajit Weekly's own categories. However, I'm not quite sure what they all mean. I've already had some help from Gurpartap and any additional help would be appreciated.



I'd prefer non-literal translations (so ਦਿੱਲੀ ਦਰਬਾਰ becomes "Politics" and not "Delhi Darbar") that give details of what's contained in the categories. The very iffy category names have question marks. If you want to check out their site, see http://www.ajitweekly.com/



Regards,

Sukh

Job/Work Posting for Sikhs in Punjab

If anyone's in punjab is interested in $100 web site design work please email me...I get these small jobs (most of them less than $500) quite a bit but have to turn them down due to other priorities. So if you live in Punjab and are Sikh and can do web work please let me know...there's more where this came from.

This particular job is for a tax person who just wants to create a better looking, functioning web site.

Thanks!

Ps...Project: Gurmukhi is still alive and kicking...just hang on...i promise there'll be a lot more action soon...

Using the Punjabi Learning Site

it's a bit hard to navigate but once you know where the bulk of the stuff is it's easier from there:

if you look at the "Projects Completed" on the top right corner...you want to click on the first link.

and then there's a top navigation bar in blue...white text...and when you rollover the text in the nav bar...you'll see a sub menu...

one of the really awesome things i found was this page:

http://www.advancedcentrepunjabi.org/animated_stories.html

it has 3 animated Punjabi fables...how can we forget the Kaa(n)/crow that wouldn't give up!

i can't wait to test it out on my daughter...:)

Great News!!!!

Dr. Lehal has just informed us that

www.advancedcentrepunjabi.org

is up and running. Please visit if you have any desire of learning Gurmukhi.

i'm not feeling well right now...so didn't have the chance to actually pull up cool stuff like

AUDIO

This is soooooo GREAT!!!!! Thank you Dr. Lehal!

This is a preliminary logo for SikhoSikho Org. a privately funded organization to promote Gurmukhi.




I'm not doing this alone. I have 125,000 with me, behind me, ahead of me, beside me.

Free Books for learning Gurmukhi

as all of you know by now i'm going to the motherland (punjab) soon and i was going to buy a lot of books. but even before that i have 3 (i think) extra copies of beginner's/kids' punjabi alphabet books.

and if you'd like send me your address and i'll mail it to you. first come first serve. when you're done you can choose to send it back. and when i get back from punjab i'll list some more titles here for you to "take" free of charge of course!
