Giddha Bhangra – Silver Oaks Nursing College – Mohali – June 12, 2009
Giddha (?????, giddh?) Women – Bhangra (?????, p???g?ä) Men – is a popular folk dance of in Punjab region of India and Pakistan. The dance is often considered derived from the ancient dance known as the ring dance and is just as energetic as Bhangra and at the same time it manages to creatively display feminine grace, elegance and elasticity. Bhangra enhanced during the Vaisakhi festival celebrations of the Punjab. The Punjabi dance performed at this time in ecstasy with the beat of Dhol came to be known as Bhangra. The tradition spread slowly to other parts of the region and developed into a unique folk dance form. Bhangra has come of age and is now performed at every major celebration and in clubs, etc. Traditional Bhangra is a fusion of music, singing and the beat of the dhol drum, a single-stringed instrument called the iktar (ektara), the tumbi and the chimta. The accompanying songs are small couplets written in the Punjabi language called bolis. They relate to current issues faced by the singers and (dil the gal) what they truly want to say. In Punjabi folk music, the dhol’s smaller cousin, the dholki, was nearly always used to provide the main beat. Nowadays the dhol is used more frequently, with and without the dholki. . As many Bhangra lyrics reflect the long and often tumultuous history of the Punjab, knowledge of Punjabi history offers important insights into the meaning of the music. During the last thirty years, Bhangra has enjoyed a surge in popularity worldwide, both in traditional form and as a fusion with genres such as hip-hop, house, and reggae.

Fiscal Year 2009: Hopes & Expectations
By Thomas J. Joy, Esq.
October 2008 Newsletter
October 1, 2008 marks the start of the new government Fiscal Year 2009 (“FY 2009”). At this time the new annual quota of immigrant visa numbers becomes available. Unfortunately, retrogression is still with us.
The anxiously awaited State Department October Visa Bulletin indicates EB-3 cutoff dates as follows: China (October 1, 2001), India (July 1, 2001), Mexico (July 1, 2002), Philippines (January 1, 2005), all other countries (January 1, 2005). Earlier visa bulletins had predicted that FY 2009 would start with the more favorable cutoff dates that had existed in June 2008 just before the EB-3 category became totally unavailable from July through September 2008.
