Karakter admits that he rarely breaks even on these shows, which are mostly attended by backpackers, college kids, and curiosity seekers.
Karakerrek onartzen du gutxitan apurtzen dituela ikuskizun hauetan ere, batez ere motxila, institutu-ume eta jakin-bilgailuekin.
On a good night, his shows draw a crowd of 200-300 people, which would be disastrous for a South Beach superclub such as Opium Garden.
Gau on batean, bere ikuskizunak 200-300 laguneko jendetza erakartzen du, South Beach superklub batean, esate baterako, Opium Garden.
"On the Masta Killa show [which took place last November 5], we got 350 people there, and three of us that were involved in promoting the show lost about $70 each," he says.
«Masa Killa ikuskizuna [iragan azaroaren 5a egin zuena], 350 pertsona bildu genituen bertan, eta horietako hiru $ 70 inguru galdu ziren».
"Every show I've thrown, it's not like I'm walking away with big bucks and shit," he continues. "I probably have enough money to eat sushi and smoke a joint." Why does he promote shows that lose money? "Just for the love of good hip-hop," he says.
«Etorri egin dudan ikuskizun oro, ez da kolpe handi eta kolpetxoz ibiltzea», jarraitzen du. "Nik, ziurrenik, diru nahikoa daukat sushia jan eta kea jatea", zergatik, dirua irabazten du?», «H hip-hop onaren maitasunagatik», dio.
The artists he brings out are "inspiring and motivating, at least to me."
Irudiak ateratzen dituen artistak "inspiratzea eta motibatzea, behintzat niri".

Reality has hit both cities: water grows scarce, space is tighter, cars clog roads and pollute the air, and money is disappearing.
Errealitateak bi hiriak hit ditu: ura urria da, espazioa estuagoa da, autoen blokeoak eta airea kutsatzen du, eta dirua desagertzen da.
Zócalo hosts a panel of experts—including architect and University of Washington assistant professor Nicole Huber; writer, curator and former director of the Las Vegas Art Museum Libby Lumpkin; and educator, author and architect Ralph Stern—to discuss how the cities can continue to expand and to mirror each other even as they are forced to spar over dwindling resources.

What used to be their natural habitat had been cleared and replaced with oil palm, rubber, cocoa, watermelons, banana and other crash crops which resulted in a hard-to-resist temptation for the wild elephants to raid these areas during the late evenings and early mornings unchallenged.
Bertako habitat naturala zena argi geratu zen eta olio-pintura, kautxua, kakaoa, ur-emariak, bana eta beste labore batzuk ordezkatu zituzten. Izan ere, haizearen kontrako izurriteei aurre egiteko tentaldian gelditu ziren, gau eta goiz goizetan.
To further protect the elephants, the ECTU has been moving elephants from areas of conflict to permanently protected areas.
Elefanteak babesteko, ECTU eremuetako elefanteak mugitu ditu etengabe babestutako eremuetara.

In the early days of the unit before
Unitatearen lehen egunetan unitatearen unitatearen lehen egunetan
1974, the method of eradicating the problem was simply shooting & killing the elephants on sight
1974, arazoa kentzeko metodoa besterik ez zen tiro egin eta elefanteak ikusmena hiltzea
- until the numbers decreased alarmingly and the unit decided to manage the problem by using a combination of scientific and manual method of translocating the elephants.
- zenbakiak ausaz murrizten diren arte, eta unitateak arazoa kudeatzeko erabaki zuen elefanteak transkribatzeko metodo zientifiko eta eskuzko konbinazioa erabiliz.
Armed with dart guns filled with the Immobilondrug, the rangers would painstakingly track down raiding elephants on foot and

4WDs, desblokeatu nahi diren elefanteak, seguru zuhaitzei marrazoak eta altzairu herdoilgaitzezko kateak erabiliz, eta, ondoren, lan-eskaintasun kolektiboak baliatu, lubanarro basatiak kentzeko, lubanarroak azaleratzeko eta erreserba errebeldeak askatzeko.

The men had to camp in areas where there were problems for as quick as 1 month and as long as 2 years in one place where they took turns in taking leave to be with their loved ones.
Gizonek hilabete 1 bezain laster arazoak izan zituzten, eta 2 urte eskasean, leku batean, beren maiteekin alde egiteko txandak hartu zituzten.
Instead of using chains, they used jute ropes and used the direct approach in capturing wild elephants - riding on tamed elephants, wading into the wild herds and throwing lassos onto the smallest elephants they could get.
Kateak erabili beharrean, jute sokak erabili zituzten eta ikuspuntu zuzena erabili zuten elefante basatiak harrapatzeko -langileei tiro egin, artalde basatietan sartu eta lasoak bota zituzten elefanterik txikienari.
This method was stopped as it was unsuccessful due to the complications arising from the local terrain and replaced with the method of darting wild elephants with powerful drugs and using tamed elephants to lead and drag lightly sedated wild elephants onto waiting trucks.
Metodo hori gelditu egin zen tokian tokiko lurtik eratortzen diren arazoei aurre egiteko, eta desagertarazi egin zuten medikamentu boteretsuekin, eta elefante madarikatuak kamioien zainetara eramatea.

In the course of these translocation, the unit has suffered one death of its rangers, several seriously injured personnelwhile about 40 wild elephants due to stress since 1978
Transizio horietan, unitateak bere Rangers heriotza jasan du, larriki zauritutako langile batzuek, eta 40 elefante basati inguru hil dituzte 1978az geroztik.

In the hot, humid and shady environment, detecting a wild elephant is very difficult and dangerous.
Ingurune bero, heze eta itzalean, elefante basati bat antzematea oso zaila eta arriskutsua da.
Elephants can be unpredictable ; in particularly a young male elephant may be aggressive and charge in an attempt to exert its authority!
Elezaharrak ezin dira aurreikusi; batez ere elefante gazte bat erasokorra izan daiteke eta autoritatea arriskuan jartzen saiatzen ari da!
Immobilon is used to bring down an elephant at a distance of not less than 10 metres
Immobilon elefante bat 10 metro baino gutxiagora botatzeko erabiltzen da
; this means the dart man has to skillfully and quietly make his way close to the intended elephant while being protected by two .458 rifle totting colleagues, in case the elephant charges.
; honek esan nahi du gizon lehorra zentzuzkoa eta isila dela burutik gertu bere bidea egiten ari den bitartean bi lankidek babesten duten bitartean, elefante-kargak kasu.
Applying Immobilon is itself a highly dangerous work where a drop of this powerful drug can cause a man to gointo coma almost immediately if exposed to an open wound!
Immobilon aplikatzea oso lan arriskutsua da, droga indartsu honen tanta batek ia berehala koman bat sor dezake zauri ireki baten eraginpean egon bada!
The standard amount used is usually 4cc of Immobilon which should be enough to bring down an adult elephant. It usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes for the drug to be effective onto the elephant.
Erabiltzen den zenbatekoa 4c-koa izan ohi da, eta hori nahikoa izan behar da elefante heldu bat behera. Normalean 10 eta 15 minutu behar izaten ditu sendagaia elefanterako eraginkorra izateko.
Once the elephant has been darted, it it usual for the elephant to try and pull out the dart while sending cries of help to its herd.
Behin elefantea lehortu ondoren, elefanteak orijinala saiatu eta ateratzen saiatzen da, bere laguntza oihuak bidaltzen dituen bitartean.
This is a most dangerous time when the elephant may charge at full speed.
Hau denbora arriskutsuena da, elefanteak abiadura bizian kargatu ahal izango duenean.
All the while, the rifle team is in contact with the 2nd team of chainmen - about 150 metres away - using walkie talkies.
Baina, aldi berean, fusila taldeak 2. katenaren taldearekin harremanetan dago - 150 metro inguruko distantziara - walkie hitzaldien bidez.
It is also noted that darting an elephant also depends much on the terrain
Nabarmentzekoa da, halaber, elefante bat hiltzean ere lurraren araberakoa da
- swampy areas are a NO
- Eremu urtsuak EZ dira
GO as the elephant might drown even under a foot of water and the riflemen might also be bogged down in case the elephant makes an about turn and attack the team!
Izan ere, elefanteak ur-oin baten azpian itota egon zitekeen bezala eta suhiltzaileek ere oheratu dezakete elefanteak txandari eta erasoari buruz egiten badu.
The area of the hunt should also contain enough big trees to secure the sedated elephant and for the team's protection against attacking elephants.
Era berean, ehiztariaren zonaldeak zuhaitz handiak ere eduki behar ditu, enfabeto haziak babesteko eta taldearen aurkako erasoak egiteko.

The rifle team will slowly followed the trails left by the darted elephant and once found, the 2nd team - the chainmen - will quickly do their job of ;
Erleratuek utzitako bideei segituko die pixkanaka, eta, behin aurkitu ondoren, 2. taldea - katea - azkar egingo du euren lana;
1. Ensuring that the darted elephant lies down in a correct position where there should not be any protruding rocks or wood against the elephant's side as this will most likely cause both the elephant's lungs to crush the heart.
1. elefante izutua posizio egokian erortzen dela bermatzea, non ez baitago inolako harkaitz edo egur harrotzerik elefantearen alboaren aurka, horrek bihotza birrinduko baitu ziurrenik.
Rangers must accurately take note of breathing sounds of the slumped elephant which will determine whether or not the airway is restricted. If it is, they will have to apply heart stimulant drug to ensure that the animal will continue breathing normally.
