Adivasi
The Adivasi refers to inhabitants of Indian subcontinent, generally tribal people. The term is a Sanskrit word coined in the 1930s by political activists to give the tribal people an indigenous identity by claiming an indigenous origin. The term is also used for ethnic minorities, such as Chakmas of Bangladesh, Khas of Nepal, and Vedda of Sri Lanka. The Constitution of India does not use the word ''Adivasi'', instead referring to Scheduled Tribes and Janjati. The government of India does not officially recognise tribes as indigenous people. The country ratified the International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention 107 on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples of the United Nations (1957) and refused to sign the ILO Convention 169. Most of these groups are included in the Scheduled Tribe category under constitutional provisions in India. They comprise a substantial minority population of India and Bangladesh, making up 8.6% of India's population and 1.1% of Bangladesh's, or 104.2&n ...

Fishing In Chad
Lake Chad, with its two major rivers and many runoff zones, was ranked high among Africa's producers of inland freshwater fish in the 1970s. With the drought and diversion of the waters of some rivers, however, production declined in the 1980s. Traditionally, fish have been an important source of protein for those living along the rivers and lakes, and fishing was also a means of earning money. Because it was practiced in an entirely traditional manner and totally outside the control of government or modern commercial enterprises, there was no accurate statistical information on fishing. In the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, total production of fish was estimated at between 60,000 and 120,000 tons per year. But because these figures represent production for the Logone River and Lake Chad, which are shared with Cameroon, Niger, and Nigeria, Chad's fish production amounted to an estimated 70 percent of the total. The largest part of the catch—perhaps two-thirds—was consumed locall ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Banda (state)
Banda was a princely state in Uttar Pradesh, India. It was disestablished due to its participation in the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The former region controlled by Banda state had a population of 698,608 people in 1881. History The founder of Banda was Ali Bahadur I. He was a grandson of the Peshwa Bajirao and son of Shamsher Bahadur. Bahadur managed to carve an independent principality for himself. However, the short-lived state ceased to exist after it participated in the unsuccessful Indian Rebellion of 1857. Its last ruler Ali Bahadur II was deposed, and the state was annexed by the British Raj.

Spirit Duplicator
A spirit duplicator (also referred to as a Rexograph or Ditto machine in North America, Banda machine in the UK, Gestetner machine in Australia) is a printing method invented in 1923 by Wilhelm Ritzerfeld that was commonly used for much of the rest of the 20th century. The term "spirit duplicator" refers to the alcohols that were a major component of the solvents used as "inks" in these machines. The device coexisted alongside the mimeograph. Spirit duplicators were used mainly by schools, churches, clubs, and other small organizations, such as in the production of fanzines, because of the limited number of copies one could make from an original, along with the low cost (and corresponding low quality) of copying. History The spirit duplicator was invented in 1923 by Wilhelm Ritzerfeld. The best-known manufacturer in the United States and the world was Ditto Corporation of Illinois. Copiers in the United Kingdom were commonly manufactured by Associated Automation Ltd of Willes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

__NOTOC__ The Banda people are an ethnic group of the Central African Republic. They are likewise found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cameroon, and South Sudan.

Banda (opera)
In opera, a ''banda'' (Italian for ''band'') refers to a musical ensemble (normally of wind instruments) which is used in addition to the main orchestra and plays the music which is actually heard by the characters in the opera. A ''banda sul palco'' (band on the stage) was prominently used in Rossini's Neapolitan operas. Verdi used the term ''banda'' to refer to a ''banda sul palco'', as in the score for ''Rigoletto''. He used the term ''banda interna'' (internal band), to refer to a band which is still separate from the orchestra but heard from the off-stage wings. The early scores of ''La traviata'' use a ''banda interna''. Origins Diegetic depictions of music making are present in the earliest operatic depictions of Orpheus accompanying himself but larger onstage ensembles seem to have first appeared in ''Don Giovanni'', most spectacularly in the polymetric Act I ball where the wind ''Harmonie'' is joined by two violin-and-bass bands to simultaneously accompany minuet, contrada ...

Banda Music
Banda is a genre of Regional Mexican music and type of ensemble in which wind (mostly brass) and percussion instruments are performed. The history of banda music in Mexico dates from the middle of the 19th century with the arrival of piston brass instruments, when community musicians tried to imitate military bands. The first bandas were formed in Southern and Central Mexico. Many types of bandas exist in different territories and villages, playing traditional or modern music, organized privately or municipally. Traditional ensembles Brass instruments in the state of Oaxaca that date back to the 1850s have been found. The repertoire of the bands of Morelos, Guerrero, Oaxaca, Chiapas and Michoacán covered ''gustos'', ''sones'', ''vinuetes'', ''funeral pieces'', ''marches'', ''danzones'', ''valses'', ''corridos'', ''paso dobles'', ''polkas'', ''rancheras'', ''alabanzas'', and ''foxes''.
