If anybody here uses tatoeba.org much you'll surely have noticed the ever more-frequent outages. It's a site I use for sentence mining literally everyday, and when I lack access my learning is seriously impaired. Are there any worthwhile substitutes out there?
For those that don't know it's a very large, searchable multi-language corpus of translated sentences.

I have never used or heard of tatoeba, but I use tangorin for my example questions. Tangorin looks like it uses the same thing as tatoeba, if you look at the bottom and it has a link to tatoeba.
check it out, it may be what you are after: http://tangorin.com/examples/

If you just need J-E, any Edict-based online dictionary is going to have it, or you can download a copy at http://ftp.ftp.edrdg.org/pub/Nihongo/00INDEX.html
The entire database is presumably available for download somewhere, but I can't check since tatoeba.org is down...

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll have a look the next time the site is down. The thing I love about the site is the sheer diversity of the material--and it reaches far wider than the original Tanaka Corpus, thanks to an active community of translators adding new material daily.
If you haven't used it I'd check it out.
