3D Pictures Are Fun
This is a nice picture for cross-eyed viewing:

I wonder how strenuous it would be to watch a movie cross-eyed. Maybe a short one would not be too bad.
There's more about stereoscopic images at Wikipedia.

Catnip Sushi
This looks like a good idea for kids to make for their pets when they have nothing to do. (e.g. Summer vacation.)

Babo: Korean Movie
This looks like a good movie. "바보" is pronounced "babo" and it is Korean for "fool".
:: 바보, 2008년 2월 그의 웃음이 세상을 행복하게 합니다 ::
Synopsis from http://ilove-koreanmovie.blogspot.com/ :
Ji-ho is a promising pianist, studying and playing abroad for years. But one night she had a stage fright and never recovers. In despair, Ji-ho comes home and meets her old classmate Sung-ryong. Once a very bright boy, Sung-ryong had an accident and now he is in late 20s with the mind of a six year old. He is very forgetful, but he has never forgotten his first love Ji-ho. Other half of Sung-ryong’s dumb mind is occupied with his only family – younger sister Jee-in. To take care of her, Sung-ryong sells toasts in front of Jee-in’s school. But Jee-in is embarrassed of her idiotic brother and ignores him. And Sang-soo is Sung-ryong’s old friend who understands Sung-ryong’s innocent mind. But he inevitably falls to the world of gangsters. Ji-ho is still in her slump, Jee-in falls sick and Sang-soo gets involved in a bloody dispute. But all of their agonies are miraculously saved by Sung-ryong in a way nobody has forseen.

The steps described here allow some (but apparently not all, according to my experience) FLV files to be converted to MP4 files, which can be used with iDVD.

Looking for Korean Text-to-Speech
To help with my Korean phrases for taekwondo, I've been looking for a Korean text-to-speech (TTS) application. So far, I've found this one:

I found this on this list of TTS applications:
