I have a few things that I'd like to have translated if anyone can help me with it. A few ABe doujinshi titles and something else... I would like romanji and english translation please. Thanks.

Bangai-hen; extra or spinoff.

Haibane Seikatsu Nissi; literally, "Grey-winged Life Dairy." A better version would be "The Daily Life of Grey-winged." せいかつ = 生活.

Senden; advertising.

Guess what, although I knew their meanings from their kanji, I don't know their romaji until now. Copy and paste the question into Google, then pay attention to URLs, and you'll be able to find their respective romaji. For basic translation, try Babel Fish by AltaVista, although it's quite buggy.

"Bangai-hen" literally means "Extra Chapter" or "Additional Part". Dormcat's extra / spinoff is also valid.

here hen means "chapter", "episode", "part", "volume"...; it may mean other things, too.
