Google translation from a server side.

I want to use the Google translation from a server side.
My Ideas are 1. run javascript on a server or 2. Direct http call to Google from server with PHP.

RESULT:

I selected "#2 Direct http call".

DETAIL:


1. run javascript on a server

I found "V8 JavaScript Engine".

"V8 JavaScript Engine" is a very good Engine,
but for me, it will take much time to make goolge objects in the V8.

How to install memo.

DOWNLOAD scons-2.0.1.tar.gz
# tar xzf scons-2.0.1.tar.gz
# cd scons-2.0.1
# python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME

# svn co http://google..... V8
# tar xzf scons-2.0.1.tar.gz
# cd v8
# scon
# cd samples
# g++ -I../include shell.cc -o shellv8 ../libv8.a -lpthread -m32

Test run javascript.

#./shellv8  test.js

test.js is:

print ('Hello' + ', World');
var x = 100;
var y = 200;
print ("x * y = " + (x * y));


Some objects, window and google, not implemented in shell.
It will take much time to make these objects.

2. Direct http call to Google from server PHP.

I re-read "Google Translate API Version 2".
it's is in Labs, but it has REST API.
REST is "Representational State Transfer".

like.

How to quickly, randomly select and sort using MySQL?

(ENGLISH)
How to quickly, randomly select and sort a specified number of records from a table under some conditions using MySQL?
I think that it is very difficult.
My solution has an almost randomness.
Here, "much_more_number" is about twice or greater than "specified_number".
SQL likes...
"SELECT * (SELECT *, RAND() as random FROM (SELECT * FROM table WHERE conditions LIMIT much_more_number) as x ORDER random LIMIT specified_number) as y ORDER sort_conditions"

(JAPANESE)
MySQLを用いて、一定の検索条件に該当するレコードを指定された数だけランダムに抽出しそれをソートすることを高速に行う方法とは、
これを実現することはとても難しいと思われる。
私の解答は、まあまたランダムというものです。
ここで、"much_more_number"というのは、"specified_number"の二倍とかもっと大きな数です。
SQLは、こんな感じです。
"SELECT * (SELECT *, RAND() as random FROM (SELECT * FROM table WHERE conditions LIMIT much_more_number) as x ORDER random LIMIT specified_number) as y ORDER sort_conditions"
