Language translation

From Lifehacker:

The web makes it possible to search for documents written in every conceivable language, but what if you don't actually know the language you find that special somethin' written in? No worries—there are plenty of online translation services that can give you anything from just a good idea to a complete translation of what you're looking at.

Disclaimer: None of the following language translation services can substitute for a real live human translator."

To read the rest of the article please go to Get Lost in Translation by Wendy Boswell. She gives a great list of tools that can be used for language translation.

Cougar Sighting

Just a reminder to the students from Fort Rupert or anybody that happens to be visiting Fort Rupert that there was a cougar sighted twice yesterday and one killed last week by the conservation officer. Yesterday the cougar (the one that was not killed) was seen near Fort Rupert General Store (Larry Hunt's Store) and Mable and Pete Knox's house. Use caution when walking or outside. There have also been numerous bears in the village, therefore use your common sense when out and about.

Then soon it started eating people So Rezy called in the army and Rezy's Fro ate the army. So Rezy told the Fro that he loved him ant the Fro went back on his head. They lived happily ever after.
