Ukrainian to English
Hello Translator(s) RE: "Josyp Terelya". Look him up on the internet for more info. He is a visionary in exile from his native Ukraine, who survived 23 years of torture in prison based on his religious beliefs. He has reserved the last week of June to give conferences in Ottawa to whoever wants to receive him. I'm inviting him to a French community in Ottawa, but we don't have translators from Uknrainian to French. Bishop Danylak will be translating into English for English group(s). I'm also trying to have him speak in as many communities as possible in the area, Chinese, Japonese. Italian, Ukrainian, etc. His message is urgent to all people. He needs translators willing to VOLONTEER their talent for the Lord and be free to travel with him as needed or find a replacement for whatever language is needed. The translation is usually spontanious and brings special blessings for the translator(s) [ as some have experienced already.] The translator(s) need not be professional as long as he/she has control of the languases spoken at the conference(s) Please let me know ASAP if you/anyone can help me. also if you or someone you know would like to hear him. Thank you and God bless!

Spanish to English (American)
Good Day. My name is Leopoldo Bolanos. I´m a novelist and screenplay writer. I reacently finished a novel called THE EYE OF THE LION. The novel is having very good reviews and two agents in Spanish already requested the MS for evaluation. Two other american agents have show big interest about it. I had a previous translator who did a great job translating the first chapter, but she had to move to start a new carreer and couldn´t finish the job. So I have only one chapter to show to the american agents, and it´s a problem. I am very honest about this job. There is no money upfront since I haven´t been pay any money yet, and I´m not a famous author (yet), but I strongly believe this book has a big commercial potencial. So, what I want to offer to the translator willing to assist me is a fair deal in exchange for his/her work. I am willing to offer a 25% of the total amount of any initial payment I get for the rights of the english version of the novel, to the person who can make a professional translation of the novel in a reasonable amount of time. I know there is a risk involved in the deal, but we can minimize the risk. You can read the novel and decide by yourself if the book is worth taking the chance. If you read it and find that you don´t like it, well, at least you read a book for free. But in the other hand, if you read it and decide (as four literary agents did) that it has potencial, then contact me and we´ll talk a bout. All I need is you is to trust your instincts and your vision. Please email me and I will send you a copy of the book. Thanks.

We are contracted by the US Government to find linguist specialists who can translate and interpret between Arabic and English as well as selected Pashtu and English. Our main job placement is for overseas work with the US Military in Iraq. The two positions pay either $152,820 per year to $179,000 per year ( based on citizenship and language skills ). These are non-negotiable as they are under government contract - GSA GS 10F 0106R. We do employ Green card and dual citizenship but they must know the Iraqi dialect. US Citizens need to know Modern Standard Arabic. The US Citizen position will also be processed for a D.O.D. security clearance which would allow for more government opportunities back in the states. These positions do come with health coverage, life insurance, 401K and the ability to defer $80,000 in taxes. We do have various positions available in the continental US as well as other locations around the world. These positions, for the government, typically require a security clearance and some require a certain education level and citizenship. The jobs for overseas work would include translation/interpretation of the following: written material, email, phone, one on one. You would NOT be in the military but rather a civilian contractor helping to rebuild a much needed area. We have similar opportunities in Pashtu for Afghanistan Feel free to contact us... we would be glad to assist. We currently have 75 recruits in country and have placed over 300 in the past years. We have the best reputation for customer satisfaction. Many Thanks
