UCLA Student Tasered by Police in Library

November 17th, 2006

Yeah, I’m a little late blogging about this but dammit if I don’t get pissed off just watching this video. I really, really hope the officers involved in this go to jail. It’s a long cell phone video that is mostly audio, but I encourage you all to really watch it and make your own judgements on this one.

Youtube: UCLA Student gets Tazered

Update: Looks like the student was Iranian-American. Don’t forget to carry your “papers” when you go to the library these days.

Update 2: Looks like MSNBC finally picked up on this with this article and it appears that the student is going to sue. The article also includes brief excerpts from both sides of the story and (I’m no lawyer) I’m guessing this is going to drag out for quite a while.

I want to play the tabla!

You all probably remember these guys from the last time I talked about them in December: Happy Singer and Happy Tabla Guy

Make sure you keep watching, the Jack and Jill part is hilarious!

You can thank Harleen for sending this over.

Usman goes to DC.

July 4th, 2006

If you were at any of the wedding events last month, you would have met Usman. Even if you didn’t “meet” Usman, you probably heard him at some point and he probably tried to dance with you too — even if there was no music playing. I believe this was the first Punjabi wedding he had ever been to and needless to say, he loves bhangra.

Last weekend, we went out to DC with him…

And then we walked for a bit… but you know Usman, walking is too lame for him…

Good times.

Chuck Norris is the man!

Calcutta Calling

January 24th, 2006

Sepia Mutiny put up a quick video link that follows three Indian girls, adopted and raised by Midwestern American parents, as they return to India to explore their dual identities.

The movie is 20 minutes long, you won’t regret it.

Here’s the video: Calcutta Calling

What else is there?

Video: Royksopp - What else is there?

I found this on Turbanhead today. I’d have to say it’s one of the spookier music videos I’ve seen in a while.

Just another video.

December 27th, 2005

Yes, I realize that I have had no really interesting content in the past few days. Cut me a break. I been busy and stuff. :)

Today’s video is called “Happy Tabla Guy and Happy Singer Guy.”

I could try and summarize the video clip for you, but that just wouldn’t be as much fun. Enjoy.

(Thanks, Neera!)
