And... She is selling the clay which is used to colour hair. It is colour. These shoes are made from tyres. You must have seen it many times on Instagram OR Facebook. He's saying, they use one shoe for ten years. This shoe costs about INR100–120. These pots are used to make local beer. Injera is a very famous Ethiopian dish. You can compare it with bread. Injera usually looks like a big bread. That is used to make Injera. This is their butter market. They make this butter out of cow milk. This is Honey. She doesn't want to show us the honey. She is saying, first, give the money and buy it then see it. It tastes exactly like normal butter, but it has a lot of dirt. So, I'm not considering eating it. This is their local beer. This is the special beer of Omo Valley that these people make themself. They tried explaining its ingredients in their language, but I could not understand. But it must have the normal process for making beer with some of their own unique ingredients.
She is pouring beer in it, which they will drink. We are trying their local beer here. It has a mild taste of alcohol, it is a bit sour. It is sour, a little like alcohol and it is not very smooth to drink..

How to attach a djembe strap, and stands - African Drumming Online Blergh #4
https://www.youtube.com/embed/rrxP40zMFsM
Hello there once more, and welcome again to the Blergh. So, today's been a bit of a rather full on week, so I believed I would certainly do something a bit different, and also hopefully a little quicker. To take a break from the practise workouts and do something various. A few of you have actually asked me regarding the djembe stand that I have actually been utilizing in these video clips, so I believed I 'd chat concerning that, and I. likewise intended to simply give you some pointers, or just give you a walkthrough video clip, on just how. to connect a band with your djembe if you intend to play standing. We'll see just how that goes ... First points initially, djembe stands. It's coming near the holiday, as well as. the exploitation as well as consumerism of commercialism remains in complete trip, so I believed, 'what much better. method to get entailed than buying drum gear?' It's one method to deal with it. So this stand that I have actually been utilizing is made. by a firm called Gibraltar.From my experience playing drum kit as well as making use of. drum equipment as well as stuff, and additionally, when I acquired this stand I tried a couple of stands and. looked around, Gibraltar equipment is normally really good as well as this was the best, heaviest,. sturdiest stand I can find. So when I acquired this, I got it from a songs. shop here in Melbourne, I assume it had to do with $400, yet if you reside in the US-- one great. point concerning living in the United States, perhaps the just advantage about staying in the United States-- is,. these stands sell on Amazon.com for, I believe, regarding $130, and you can get them delivered to. you free.I've consisted of a link to where these stands. are on Amazon in the notes for the episode, and also there should be something hovering around. on the screen as well. Full internet scam disclosure, if you so click. on the web links, they're affiliate links, so if you get one from Amazon.com making use of that web link. I get a couple of bucks, I think, like, $2 or something. So, I 'd always recommend purchasing from your. regional music shop, if you have one. Also, offers you an opportunity to in fact experiment with. the stand in person. But if you are going to get it on Amazon,. support me! So for those of you not in the US, Amazon. will not ship you this stand, so-- I believe even if it's too hefty-- so I looked. up a couple of other options, to provide you extra choices ... So initial choice is, you can buy simply the top. You can get just the leading part on Amazon for,. I believe it's $80, and after that you might just go to a music store as well as get them to market you. Anything with the very same diameter of the stand,. Like, the bottom part of this stand is really. the truly heavy little bit. So if you' r preparation to travel with your. stand, especially if you're flying on planes, having the ability to get a lighter bottom fifty percent actually. can be an useful thing.So, even if you remain in the US, that might. be roadway worth taking, simply because, yeah flying especially, the weight can really accumulate. The other option, particularly if you like. the concept of a lighter stand, this very same business, Gibraltar, additionally makes a light version of the. stand. So, this is called the strong stand, I. think the other one's called 'light task' stand, or a few other person named Judy. And it's got a slightly different design,. and it has to do with 3.5 Kg lighter, or 7 pounds, I functioned out, if you remain in America, as well as. I believe the lighter stand has to do with $100 on Amazon. So, it's a bit less costly in addition to being. lighter, to ensure that might be a good choice for you, also if you're in the US, again.So if it seems
great to you to have a more affordable. or a lighter stand, I would advise that one. I attempted a bunch of various stands, like,. I picked the hefty one because it suited what I required, however it's about 10Kg, or perhaps. much more I assume, so, if you're mosting likely to travel in any way with your drum, and even if you're. mosting likely to simply be lugging to and also from your car, or on public transport, something like. that, yeah, possibly the lighter stand's the way to go. To ensure that's djembe stands. In the meanwhile, before you've obtained a djembe. stand, if you want play standing up-- and I make certain you have actually seen it if you have actually looked. at video clips-- you can also simply utilize a piece of material to make a band around your drum. and also sort of harness it to yourself. You can make, kind of, pre-made harnesses,. with cushioning and also stuff-- I've never ever actually tried them, yet you're welcome to attempt them. out.What I was
mosting likely to reveal you today was just how,. simply, you know, one method to make a band affix to your drum so you can play standing. And there are multiple methods of doing this,. this is simply one method I'm mosting likely to show you. And I'm not quite certain exactly how I'm mosting likely to. go filming this, so, let's see how we go, detailed ... First, you need a piece of product to use. as a strap-- on this drum I have actually already connected a band, however, that's what I have actually. got. It's a number of inches thick-- I would certainly. advise getting, the thicker the far better, 4 inches or so would be great, like a seat belt. width.The thicker the
strap is, it simply indicates it. will not cut right into your shoulders as much. If you obtain a slim strap it'll actually injure. you and reduce into you, which is usually not good. Places to try and obtain a band-- I think. I obtained this band from simply, like, a stitching store. So if you've got somewhere that markets material. and also points like that, they'll probably have the ability to assist you out. As well as, in terms of length, a general guideline is. you want as long as twice your elevation. So, basically, if you obtain a 4 meter band,. or a 13 foot, band, that should function for practically anybody. Yeah, or two times your arm period, that's the. same thing.So the primary step is, to string your strap.-- so your band ought to be just a big lengthy item of material, this one's already knotted. in, so I'm simply going to have to claim ... if I turn this around. So, you simply loophole it via the strings,. the upright strings, the tightening up strings of your drum. I wish you can see that. Loop it via, as well as generally you intend to. loop it through the upright, with a couple of the upright ropes, and also you wish to do. it so the-- you should have a line down your drum, you probably have a line down your. drum-- that line's the goat's back, that sacrificed itself for your musical pleasure. And also, as a general regulation, you want the back. to be decreasing the drum, like, if you're playing from right here, the line ought to be directing. away from you.And the reason for that is, the spinal column's. the thickest part of the goat skin, and also if you're hands are playing on either side. of it, they're playing on similarly thick parts of the skin, whereas if you're playing. right here, or here, the thickness of the skin may vary. However if that kind of doesn't make good sense,. or seems like sounds, it also simply looks far better if the line's going straight, so. do that.OK, so you have actually threaded the band via. the strings, and pulled it through, and after that what you wish to do is link it. So, I've already linked this set-- if you. want a knots lesson, I'm certain there's a channel for you on YouTube, this one isn't. it-- I've already connected this one and I do not even recognize just how ... So, best of luck with binding it. But you simply desire to knot it with each other so you. have a loop. And also the loophole is just the band going in a. loop, and also it strings in between the vertical ropes on your drum. Currently, this following bit, it's most convenient if you. put the drum on the ground, so I'm going to place the drum on the ground and afterwards move. the camera around, and after that, move the camera around, and afterwards, see if I can show you just how. to do it ... OK, so I have actually altered the electronic camera around-- what. I'm going to attempt as well as do, perhaps the sound will not be excellent for this, but we'll see. exactly how it goes.So, if you've obtained the drum on the flooring,. as well as you have actually got your band knotted through it like this. Initial point you wish to do is loop the strap. over the drum, so it sort of hinges on the lower bit. So I'll just reveal you what I indicate. So, this little bit comes right here, and afterwards comes. underneath the drum. So, all I've done, and also you could do this. with the drum standing up. So if the drum's standing, what you're. doing is, the loophole comes with on this side, and I'm knotting it over the other side.So, I'm passing the loophole over, around that. side of the drum, and afterwards kind of capturing it, and afterwards putting it back over. So now it gets on the ground. As well as as soon as it's on the ground-- so it should. look kind of something like that, where you have, can you see that? Yes you can. So, you have the loop going via the band. on your drum, as well as then you kind of have 2 takes care of right here on the side. And also currently the primary step you intend to do is bring. Like that. And then, if you type of cross them under. each other like that, you'll see a little hole show up here. And also then, as you extend that apart-- so. I'm holding this with each other as well as stretching it apart-- you'll see a triangular forms.So, that triangle is where you place your head. So what I'm going to do currently is shot and also program. you with my hand, so you're head comes in via here. If that makes any kind of sense. So it appears like this, it must appear like. that, see exactly how I've got a triangle in the center? In right here. This is the triangular. That's where my head goes. So currently I'm mosting likely to zoom out a little bit and program. you placing the drum on.So my head experiences there , as well as my arms.
go through these two side openings. Let's see if that makes any type of feeling. Hey there. OK. So, I have actually got the drum in front of me, I have actually. crossed my strap over, I have actually got my triangular there, I'm going to put my head via. the triangular, like this ... Head with the triangle, as well as raise it up. So, that's my head via the triangular,. and also you see, I've got these 2 little bits on the side, that's where my arms go. Via there. And afterwards, I'm standing up with my drum ... There you go. So, if you're drum's also high or too reduced,. what you need to do is simply either provide it a lot more length, or much less size. So if it's also reduced-- it'll most likely. be also reduced if you start with 4 meters-- just knot some more of the strap up, and also do the. same point. Maintain attempting it until you get it, approximately there. This is most likely a little high for me. Something like that. I'm mosting likely to put this off now. So, I really hope that worked.I do not understand just how good the noise's going. to be on this episode either, however, apologies if it's not fantastic. It may be a bit buzzy or something, yet. I'm sure you'll be alright. So you can use that strap strategy to, attach. yourself to your drum, both literally as well as spiritually. It was a little bit tricky to function out exactly how to express. it in a video clip, especially with the sort of limited configuration I'm making use of, however ideally that. made feeling. If you have any inquiries, or if anything. really did not make good sense, please simply get in touch with me and also allow me recognize, and I'll attempt and. aid. That's it for this week-- djembe stands. See you next week! Blergh. If you have any type of responses, recommendations, or. ask for future Blergh subjects, please send me an email at jacob@africandrummingonline.com. If you're not currently an African Drumming. On-line member, you can join up, free, to obtain accessibility to all our drumming video clips at africandrummingonline.com.Thanks quite. We'll see just how that goes ... First things first, djembe stands. This is called the hefty obligation stand, I. think believe other various other's called 'light dutyTask stand, or some other person named Judy. That's djembe stands. And after that, I'm standing up with my drum ... There you go. That's it for this week-- djembe stands.

Why so many African Elephants Don't Survive their First Year
Across Africa, from Namibia to Uganda, elephant babies are trying to keep their heads above water, trying to suckle, to keep up with the herd, to make it to adulthood. But one third of baby elephants will die in this first year of life. And sometimes the threat to a baby's survival comes from within the herd. It's been a good year. The elephant herds of Uganda are increasing. In the 1980s, they were poached to the brink of extinction in the country. Now there are more than 5000 individuals. The land is green. There's plenty to eat. Newborns are almost lost in the grass. It takes a whole herd to raise a baby elephant. Female elephants help look after each other's calves. It's called alloparenting. In the process, young females learn how to care for their siblings and calves are given a better chance of survival. The babies are born after almost two years of gestation. This long development time gives them another survival advantage. They can stand and walk immediately after birth so they can reach their mother's milk.
They will rely on it for the first year. Each day, the baby elephant gains almost 1kg, or two pounds of body weight. Scientists have discovered that the composition of elephant milk differs from that of all other mammals, as well as being different for Asian and African elephants. It actually changes as the baby grows. The protein, mineral and fat content increases during lactation, providing more energy as the baby develops. But despite the best care a herd can offer, about one third of baby elephants will die in this first year of life. They will never reach adulthood. There are many threats. Water, the thing elephants need the most can also kill them. Adults need to drink up to 189 liters, or 50 gallons a day. Despite the raging torrent, the family has to cross, but babies can't swim until they're several months old. Adults have evolved ways to push their young along.
They used their trunks like arms to usher them to safety. In Namibia, water isn't always plentiful, but elephants can smell it from up to around 19 kilometers or 12 miles away. This herd is making a beeline for a man-made watering spot in Etosha National Park. A new study has found that in warm weather, elephants can lose up to 10% of all the water in their bodies.
That equates to about two full bathtubs a day, the highest level of daily water loss ever recorded in a land mammal. It's a relief to drink, but still, the herd must stay alert. Baby elephants are intelligent little beings, but they aren't born with the instinct to use their most important appendage - their trunk. They can't use it to grasp food or to suck up water.
This can make drinking awkward and precarious. A youngster falls into the trough. He calls to alert the adults. The herd reacts in unison. The water isn't deep, but the panicked baby could easily drown. The trough is narrow and hard to access. The females can only watch on while the youngster remains stuck. Many trunks, but no rescue, until a mature female finally lifts him to safety. Even at natural waterholes, like this one in Namibia, where there's plenty of room to move, female elephants must stay calm when dealing with emergencies so as not to panic others in the herd, especially their calves. Mud baths should be enjoyable, not traumatic. This matriarch gives a youngster a helping trunk, a lesson for baby and another young member of the herd. But Elephant Society isn't always so cooperative. Researchers at Mushara Waterhole in Namibia have witnessed a darker side of the elephants' nature where danger doesn't lie outside the herd, but within it. This baby and his mother are chased away from the water by the matriarch.
The calf just wants some fun, but he sent back to his mother by the other females. Despite living with the herd for the last 5 years, the mother is left to care for her baby alone. Most of the herd begins to move on, turning their backs on the mother and her calf. Two females even throw irritating dust at the parent. The baby has become weak. The stress of rejection may have left the mother unable to produce enough milk.
The calf needs to drink around 2 litres of milk every 2 hours. He's getting weaker by the second and is now unable to stand up to feed. If he doesn't drink soon, he will die of dehydration. Why is this baby destined to die while others are saved? Researchers think this cruel behavior is evidence of a pecking order within the herd. Each elephant has their place in the hierarchy and that status is passed down through generations. This isn't in keeping with our perception of elephant behavior, Herds can break up in places where poaching occurs, but not usually in places like this, where the herd is protected and there's enough food and water. Here in the Namibian desert, resources are scarce.
No baby gets left behind. Each one of them is precious. Elephant herds are complex societies. We can only observe and try to understand the dynamics at work within them. In understanding their behaviour at much deeper levels, we may also be able to help them survive. Thanks for watching.

Kalani STEALS Kendall's Special Part (Season 4 Flashback) | Dance Moms
ABBY LEE: And on the top of the pyramid is Maddie. Nobody seems too happy about that. MOM: It's just predictable these days. Isn't that sad? Moving onto this week, we will be traveling to Fort Wayne, Indiana. We will be attending Masters of Dance Arts. The group routine is entitled "The Bite." My junior league competition team has won seven consecutive competitions in a row. This week, I hope they're gonna make it eight. All right, now obviously, Maddie is not here. She is doing a job in LA. I'm looking for the child who can be my Maddie when Maddie's not here. Ladies, we're gonna have a little competition. I want everybody to improv.
And then the moms are going to pick the kid they think wowed them. Here's the catch. You cannot pick your own child. All right, ladies-- 5, 6, 7, 8. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Jill. Personally, my eye was drawn to Kendall. But I know we can't pick them. So my eye was secondly-- --drawn to Kalani. ABBY LEE: Kalani, OK. And Kira? Chloe. ABBY LEE: Chloe. Chloe. Uh, Kalani. I-- I was watching you. JILL: Wait, could you say the name? I didn't hear. - Kendall. JILL: Thank you. ABBY LEE: All right, you two are out of the game. 5, 6, 7, 8, and 1-- --3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 3, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. OK, who's voting for Kalani? Who voted for Chloe? Raise your hand. One, two three. And who voted for Kendall? Oh, I did. ABBY LEE: One, two, three. Kalani, you're out. All right, we have it down to two. Finish. Kalani. Kendall. ABBY LEE: Kendall. Kendall. ABBY LEE: Kendall. - Kendall. ABBY LEE: Kendall. Kendall. ABBY LEE: Kendall. Kendall.
What happened? Kendall, Maddie's not here right now. So you have been chosen to take her position. I'm so excited. I knew Kendall was gonna win the improv. Abby has never given her the time of day. And here, this kid went out and nailed it. And now maybe since Kendall got the lead in the dance, Abby will have to pay attention to her. Maddie, since you weren't here yesterday, I put Kendall in charge.
So respectfully, I want you to let her continue today, OK? Just you worry about you and your parts, all righty? Yeah. 5, 6, 7, 8. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, 6, 7, 8. ABBY LEE: The group routine this week is called "The Bite." It's very dark and driven. Kalani, you're gonna come out first. Then my next set is Kendall and Maddie. MOM: Maddie, get in that window. ABBY LEE: This is when Maddie leaves. MOM: No. I don't think that Kendall is the lead. I think Kalani's the lead.
Abby, wasn't that the role you just gave to Kendall? She just earned that spot, and now you're giving it to Kalani. Abby, you're not even pretending to stand by your word. And I think it's ridiculous. Maddie has the prop. MOM: And she has a pop. And so your eye is drawn-- I mean, the bright red apple that your eye goes to so. ABBY LEE: Your eye is drawn to that. CHRISTI: Where-- where is the prop? She doesn't have it now. Well, she goes off and gets it, and brings it on. CHRISTI: Oh. I kind of think Kendall should have been biting the apple and dying, or doing the spooky which part to give Kalani the apple. Because she won the dance-off. ABBY LEE: It's not cute. It's, like, big. And I want you to reach your teeth out and bite it. Look in the mirror. Yes, go. You need to make a big deal. It needs to be evil, like you have fangs.
Well, I think it's established. Kendall is not the lead. Didn't get a special part, and doesn't carry the apple. It's just funny that the apple didn't show up until Maddie did. We had learned the dance without Maddie, and then Maddie came. MELISSA: I know. Melissa, I'm just saying. MELISSA: I'm-- I agree. We didn't know there was an apple until Maddie was holding it. So Abby, I just have a quick question. You know, when Kendall won the competition that we had, what was her special part again? She was the dance captain. She still is. OK, but before that you said, it was for a special part. No, I didn't. Yes, you did. I don't think Maddie or Kalani do anything that Kendall couldn't have done. So what would it have hurt you to not feature Maddie for once? Never once did I hear Kendall open heart damn mouth and say, Miss Abby, I really want the special part. Please let me try it. Why would she do that? If she wants it so bad, that's what it does.
It will be great. It will be great. ANNOUNCER: All right, up next in the juniors small group division, this is entry number 76 entitled, "The Bite." I picked an apple for you to say I love you, I need to, I want you to stay. Oh, woes, woes pile up to your nose, because good enough just isn't good enough. Ba-dum-pum-pum-pum. A brush, and a comb, and a mirror, and blade. A horse, and a cart, and a river, and glade. Every note, every voice, every song ever played all collected and lovingly at your feet laid. Oh woes, woes pile up to your nose. 'Cause good enough just isn't good enough. Ba-dum-pum-pum-pum. ANNOUNCER: Top three highest elite junior small group in third place-- Cross your fingers, girls. ABBY LEE: Act number 56, "Ghetto Superstars." In second place, act number 57, "Schoolin'." And in first place, act number 76, "The Bite." ABBY LEE: I played this stinkin' competition like a harp from hell.
Woo-hoo! I cannot be beaten. CHRISTI: Hey. Good job, girls. - Nice job. - Thank you. Kalani! Congratulations, Chloe. Great job. Thank you. You danced really well. CHLOE: Thank you. But I need you to realize you're now taking private lessons at the studio like you should have been all the time. No, she always did. She takes lessons. You need to look at that attendance record in our studio. CHRISTI: Well, yeah. Because you have a weird sense of when she was there. No, I don't. Because I drive her. So I know when I'm driving to get there. Well, maybe she's sneaking out the back door to meet some guy. I don't know. Don't say that about a 12-year-old. That's wrong. Well, you're pushing that point. See what her mother does? I want to give this kid some praise.
And Satan-- CHRISTI: No, I'm doing what-- Satan destroys it! And if you're not gonna improve the way Maddie's improving, then you'll be replaced. That's it. There's no room for slackers on this team..
