Translation and Translating:Theory and Practice by Roger T. Bell
The author attempts to
arrange the translation process and set it within a systemic model of
language. The book is divided into three parts, namely model, meaning
and memory, assessing how logical relationships are organized and mapped
onto the syntactic systems of a language. Bell firstly defines
translation for the purposes of his book and argues that a major
specification for the successful organization of translation into a
manageable system is translator competence.

Loki's Wolves (The Blackwell Series #1)
In Viking times, Norse
myths predicted the end of the world, an event called Ragnarok, that
only the gods can stop. When this apocalypse happens, the gods must
battle the monsters--wolves the size of the sun, serpents that span the
seabeds, all bent on destroying the world.
The gods died a long time ago.
Matt Thorsen knows every Norse myth, saga, and god as if it was family history--because it is family history. Most people in the modern-day town of Blackwell, South Dakota, in fact, are direct descendants of either Thor or Loki, including Matt's classmates Fen and Laurie Brekke.
However, knowing the legends and completely believing them are two different things. When the rune readers reveal that Ragnarok is coming and kids--led by Matt--will stand in for the gods in the final battle, he can hardly believe it. Matt, Laurie, and Fen's lives will never be the same as they race to put together an unstoppable team to prevent the end of the world.

Jingisukan (‘Genghis Khan’ – Japanese-Style Grilled Lamb)
- The origins of Jingisukan dish
- This dish takes its name from the 13th century ruler Genghis Khan, the founder of the Mongol Empire that stretched across Eurasia.
- This dish of grilled mutton or lamb was created in Japan about 100 years ago. Until then neither mutton nor lamb had featured in the Japanese diet. At the time, mutton conjured up images of Mongolia and the extensive grazing of sheep there. The name Genghis Khan was already familiar to many Japanese. It is also possible that this dish was inspired by the Chinese dishes of grilled mutton that Japanese visitors had seen in northeastern China.
- In the late 19th century, the Japanese government encouraged sheep farming as a source of wool. People were also encouraged to eat mutton to grow bigger and stronger. This culminated in the dish known as ‘Genghis Khan’. The authorities occasionally organised events in Tokyo and Hokkaido for people to sample it. But the dish began to become familiar among Japanese people around the 1930s. It is still popular particularly in Hokkaido where there is still a lot of sheep farming.
- Specialized cast iron pans are available in Japan for Genghis Khan. The pans have a raised centre to hold the meat, while the surrounding section for the vegetables is shaped like the brim of a hat and designed so that it will catch and coat the vegetables with the meat juices. Many homes in Hokkaido have these special pans. They are not used for any other dish. Genghis Khan holds a rather unique place in Japanese cuisine.
Whole Language Approach
- The term whole language was created in 1980s by a group of U.S educators concerned with the teaching of language arts, reading and writing in native language.
- Whole language argues that language should be taught as whole.
- The whole language approach emphasize learning to read and write naturally with a focus on real communication and reading and writing for pleasure.
- Whole language shares a philosophical and instructional perspective with CLT since it emphasize the importance of meaning and meaning making in teaching
- Whole language also relates to natural approaches because it is designated to help children and adults learn second and foreign language in much the same way children learn their first language
- Whole language is an approach because of its key principle about language(language is whole) and language learning (listening, speaking, reading and writing should be integrated in teaching).
- Teachers are free to implement whole language approach according to the need of particular classes.
- Goal of whole language approach is to make students able to use four language skill with fluency and accuracy.

Percy Jackson's Greek Gods Quote
It's like Rick Riordan is always conveying his wisdom through the "God". After reading Percy Jackson's Greek Gods, I found this: (Mr. D a.k.a Dionysus speaking)
"You know what would make you feel better? To forgive. You can't hold a grudge forever. If you bottle it up even the finest wine eventually turns to vinegar."
"You know what would make you feel better? To forgive. You can't hold a grudge forever. If you bottle it up even the finest wine eventually turns to vinegar."
