JLPT3 and JLPT4 Vocabulary Lists
I came across these lists on tanos.co.uk, and I tweaked ‘em a little so you can import them to Anki flash card software (i.e. I inserted a shitload of semi-colons). There’s only a month left before the test, and if you’re anything like me you’re scrambling for review. I this is of use to someone out there.
Anyway, here are the files. (**Note: If you view them in your browser, be sure to change to UTF-8 encoding)

On a bit of a side note, I’ll be shifting my CNet China blog to give it a Japan focus (Ryan’s taking over the China beat). It will now be called Tokyo Shift. I’ve also been working on another Japan-related website recently, and it’s now online. Check out 2JPN.com, and let me know what you think. See neato logo below:

Ong Bak is back. And now he’s a chick! …with autism …who eats smarties
Ok, so technically this is not part of the Ong Bak series. But it looks like it was produced by the same Thai film company as Ong Bak. (p.s. If you haven’t seen Ong Bak, please do. Easily one of my top 5 favorite movies ever!)
But this movie, Chocolate, looks to be similarly arse-kickin’ awesome!

Barack Obama Acceptance Speech
Obama’s speech is on youku.com in it’s entirely. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s definitely worth a watch. First 7 minutes or so aren’t awesome, but the second half is pretty amazing, as many of his other speeches have been.
h/t to America for not fucking it up this time.
