		<description><![CDATA[We just released the Arabic word segmenter that was developed last summer at Google. The segmenter is written in Java and has no external dependencies (like the Standard Arabic Morphological Analyzer (SAMA) from the LDC). You can get it from the Stanford Word Segmenter download page. The segmenter produces Penn Arabic Treebank (ATB) 3 clitic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I posted the final version of our NAACL 2012 paper on entity clustering across languages. The idea is to identify text mentions to entities in the world (e.g., people, places, and things) in multiple languages. We&#8217;ve tried to stay away from language-specific feature engineering. Moreover, we only used training resources that are abundant for many [...]]]></description>

One of the first jobs was to install SRILM. Previously, installation proceeded without incident. Not this time. Here is how I got it to install in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dive Rite has just published an excellent article on O2 toxicity for CCR divers. Most of the article covers ground that is standard in CCR courses, except for this point: The biggest mistake many CCR divers make is to elevate the pO2 at the end of the dive, during decompression. The logic is that they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve recently been preparing two submissions to CL on Arabic. Not surprisingly, the CL stylesheet (clv2.cls) conflicted with Arabtex. The editors contacted Klaus Legally, who wrote a patch. Just place the file in the directory that contains your *.tex files. The most recent ACL stylesheet also conflicts with Arabtex, but this issue can be quickly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Having visited western Oman, and gazed longingly at the border to Yemen and the Hadhramaut, I was interested to see this workshop on the indigenous language, Mehri. From the Wikipedia page: Mehri has 70,600 speakers in Yemen, 50,800 in Oman and 14,400 in Kuwait. Population total for all countries is 135,764 (SIL estimate, 2000). Mehri speakers are known in the [...]]]></description>
