Karakter admits that he rarely breaks even on these shows, which are mostly attended by backpackers, college kids, and curiosity seekers.
Karakter priznaje da rijetko prekida čak i na ovim emisijama, koje uglavnom posjećuju backpackeri, studenti i tražitelji znatiželje.
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.
U dobroj noći, njegove emisije privlače publiku od 200-300 ljudi, što bi bilo katastrofalno za super klub South Beach kao što je 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.
"Na showu Masta Killa [koji se održao prošlog studenog], tamo smo imali 350 ljudi, a troje od nas koji su bili uključeni u promociju emisije izgubili su oko 70 dolara po osobi", kaže on.
"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.
"Svaka emisija koju sam bacio, nije kao da odlazim s velikim novcem i sranjima", nastavlja. "Vjerojatno imam dovoljno novca za jesti sushi i pušiti joint." Zašto promovira emisije koje gube novac? "Samo zbog ljubavi prema dobrom hip-hopu", kaže on.
The artists he brings out are "inspiring and motivating, at least to me."
Umjetnici koje izvodi su "inspirirajući i motivirajući, barem za mene".

Reality has hit both cities: water grows scarce, space is tighter, cars clog roads and pollute the air, and money is disappearing.
Stvarnost je pogodila oba grada: voda postaje sve manja, prostor je zategnut, automobili začepljuju ceste i zagađuju zrak, a novac nestaje.
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.
Zócalo je domaćin panela stručnjaka - uključujući arhitekta i docenticu Sveučilišta u Washingtonu Nicole Huber; pisac, kustos i bivši direktor Muzeja umjetnosti u Las Vegasu Libby Lumpkin; i pedagog, autor i arhitekt Ralph Stern - kako bi raspravljali o tome kako se gradovi mogu nastaviti širiti i odražavati jedni druge čak i dok su prisiljeni štedjeti sve manje resursa.

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.
Ono što je nekada bilo njihovo prirodno stanište očišćeno je i zamijenjeno uljnom palmom, gumom, kakaoom, lubenicama, bananama i drugim usjevima koji su rezultirali teško otpornim iskušenjem za divlje slonove da pljačkaju ova područja tijekom kasnih večeri i ranih jutarnjih sati bez izazova.
To further protect the elephants, the ECTU has been moving elephants from areas of conflict to permanently protected areas.
Kako bi se dodatno zaštitili slonovi, ECTU premješta slonove iz područja sukoba u trajno zaštićena područja.

In the early days of the unit before
U ranim danima jedinice prije
1974, the method of eradicating the problem was simply shooting & killing the elephants on sight
1974. godine, metoda iskorjenjivanja problema bila je jednostavno pucanje i ubijanje slonova na vidiku.
- 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.
- sve dok se broj slonova alarmantno nije smanjio i jedinica odlučila riješiti problem kombinacijom znanstvene i ručne metode premještanja slonova.
Armed with dart guns filled with the Immobilondrug, the rangers would painstakingly track down raiding elephants on foot and
Naoružani pikadom napunjenim Immobilondrogom, rendžeri bi mukotrpno pratili pješačenje slonova i pješačenje.
4WDs, knock out the intended elephants, secure them to trees using shackles & stainless steel chains and then use the strength of tamed working elephants to drag out their captured wild cousins onto trucks before releasing the problematic elephants to bigger and safer jungle reserves.
4WD-ovi, nokautirajte namjeravane slonove, osigurajte ih stablima pomoću okova i lanaca od nehrđajućeg čelika, a zatim upotrijebite snagu ukroćenih radnih slonova kako biste svoje zarobljene divlje rođake odvukli na kamione prije nego što pustite problematične slonove u veće i sigurnije rezervate džungle.

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.
Muškarci su morali kampirati u područjima gdje su problemi postojali već mjesec dana i sve dok su dvije godine na jednom mjestu naizmjenično uzimali dopust kako bi bili sa svojim voljenima.
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.
Umjesto da su koristili lance, koristili su konopce od jute i koristili izravni pristup u hvatanju divljih slonova - jahali su na ukroćenim slonovima, lutali u divlja krda i bacali lassose na najmanje slonove koje su mogli dobiti.
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.
Ova metoda je zaustavljena jer je bila neuspješna zbog komplikacija koje proizlaze iz lokalnog terena i zamijenjena metodom streljanja divljih slonova snažnim drogama i korištenjem ukroćenih slonova za vođenje i vuču lagano uspavanih divljih slonova na kamione čekanja.

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
Tijekom tih premještanja, jedinica je pretrpjela jednu smrt svojih rendžera, nekoliko teško ozlijeđenih osoblja, a oko 40 divljih slonova zbog stresa od 1978. godine.

Financijski troškovi, resursi i
manpower required makes the translocation a difficult, dangerous and expensive process. Any takers out there?
Potrebna radna snaga čini translokaciju teškim, opasnim i skupim procesom.
Wild elephant translocation must be painstakingly prepared
Translokacija divljih slonova mora biti pažljivo pripremljena
& executed with expert skills and knowledge.
Izvršeno sa stručnim vještinama i znanjem.
One must also have a cool head when a 4 ton giant charges at almost 40kph through the dense jungles!
Također morate imati hladnu glavu kada se div od 4 tone puni gotovo 40kph kroz guste džungle!
In the hot, humid and shady environment, detecting a wild elephant is very difficult and dangerous.
U vrućem, vlažnom i sjenovitom okruženju otkrivanje divljeg slona vrlo je teško i opasno.
Elephants can be unpredictable ; in particularly a young male elephant may be aggressive and charge in an attempt to exert its authority!
Slonovi mogu biti nepredvidljivi; posebno mladi mužjak slona može biti agresivan i napadati u pokušaju da izvrši svoj autoritet!
Immobilon is used to bring down an elephant at a distance of not less than 10 metres
Immobilon se koristi za skidanje slona na udaljenosti od najmanje 10 metara
; 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.
To znači da se čovjek mora vješto i tiho približiti namjeravanom slonu dok ga štite dva kolega s puškom .458, u slučaju da se slon napuni.
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!
Primjena Immobilona je sama po sebi vrlo opasno djelo gdje kap ovog moćnog lijeka može uzrokovati da čovjek gotovo odmah uđe u komu ako je izložen otvorenoj rani!
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.
Standardna količina koja se koristi je obično 4cc Immobilon koji bi trebao biti dovoljan da se dolje odrasle slona. To obično traje oko 10 do 15 minuta za lijek biti učinkovit na slona.
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.
Nakon što je slon strelom, uobičajeno je da slon pokuša izvući strelicu dok šalje vapaje za pomoć svom stadu.
This is a most dangerous time when the elephant may charge at full speed.
Ovo je najopasnije vrijeme kada se slon može napuniti punom brzinom.
All the while, the rifle team is in contact with the 2nd team of chainmen - about 150 metres away - using walkie talkies.
U međuvremenu, streljački tim je u kontaktu s 2. timom lančara - udaljenim oko 150 metara - koristeći voki-toki.
It is also noted that darting an elephant also depends much on the terrain
Također se napominje da streljaštvo slona također ovisi o terenu.
- swampy areas are a NO
- močvarna područja su ne
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!
GO kao slon može utopiti čak i pod nogom vode, a strijelci također mogu biti zaglavi u slučaju da slon napravi zaokret i napadne tim!
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.
Područje lova također bi trebalo sadržavati dovoljno veliko drveće za osiguranje sediranog slona i zaštitu tima od napada slonova.
All the men are always in jungle camouflaged uniform and wearing laced up jungle boots.
Svi muškarci su uvijek u džungli kamuflirani uniformi i nose čizme u džungli.
" You will die a thousand times over and over again "
"Umrijet ćeš tisuću puta iznova i iznova"
when you hear the growling of an enraged wild elephant, not knowing where it is lurking and coming in from the dense and humid green hell!
kad čujete režanje bijesnog divljeg slona, ne znajući gdje vreba i dolazi iz gustog i vlažnog zelenog pakla!
Total silence is of upmost priority!
Potpuna tišina je od najvećeg prioriteta!

Once the targetted elephant is darted, it will slowly move away while sounding the alarm bell to the rest of the herd.
Jednom kada se ciljani slon upuca, polako će se pomaknuti dok zvoni alarm ostatku stada.
The leader of the herd, which is the matriarch, will always lead the rest of the herd away ensuring that all the smaller elephants are protected all the time.
Vođa stada, koji je matriarh, uvijek će voditi ostatak stada kako bi se osiguralo da su svi manji slonovi zaštićeni cijelo vrijeme.
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 ;
Pušački tim će polako slijediti tragove koje je ostavio streljani slon i kada ih pronađe, 2. tim - lančari - brzo će obaviti svoj posao ;
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. Osiguravanje da slon strelice leži u ispravnom položaju gdje ne bi trebalo biti nikakvih izbočenih stijena ili drveta na slonovoj strani jer će to najvjerojatnije uzrokovati da oba slonova pluća slome srce.
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.
Rendžeri moraju točno uzeti u obzir zvukove disanja slona koji će odrediti je li dišni put ograničen. Ako je tako, morat će primijeniti lijek za stimulaciju srca kako bi se osiguralo da će životinja nastaviti disati normalno.
2. In the meantime, the riflemen will stand guard in case the rest of the herd, particularly the young aggressive males, will come charging to protect their darted colleague.
2. U međuvremenu, strijelci će čuvati stražu u slučaju da ostatak krda, posebno mladi agresivni mužjaci, dođu na napad kako bi zaštitili svog strijelca.

The chainmen will quickly secured the front legs of the dartedelephant to a big tree while preparations to revive it will be doneusing a dose of the Revivon drug which will be injected behind theelephant's ears.
Lančari će brzo pričvrstiti prednje noge slona za veliko drvo dok će se priprema za oživljavanje koristiti doza lijeka Revivon koja će se ubrizgati iza slonovljevih ušiju.
To increase the spread of the reviving drug, flapping of the ears aredone thus speeding up blood circulation.
Da bi se povećalo širenje oživljavajućeg lijeka, klapanje ušiju se tako ubrzava cirkulacija krvi.
