Hollywood

The Ho of the Week, and really of our lifetimes, is Hollywood. You can’t even spell Hollywood without ho. Anyways, the reason this week for calling Hollywood a ho is their complete inability to pass the Bechdel Rule. The Bechdel Rule was introduced in Allison Bechdel’s comic Dykes to Watch Out For back in a 1985 strip. The basic principle is that in order to pass three simple rules must be followed:

1) There must be two women in it
2) They must speak to each other
3) About something besides a man

The fact that there are so few movies that pass this test underlines the male-centric view of the world that Hollywood presents. Bitch Ph.D. discuss this phenomenon in terms of summer blockbuster #1, the Dark Knight Returns. NPR discusses it and extends it to other under represented groups.

A list of movies and their Bechdel Rule factor.

Drama! Intrigue! Scandal!

So there is a shitload of drama surrounding Bristol Palin’s pregnancy. Specifically, is this actually her second time being pregnant, and is “Twig,” VPILF’s supposed fifth child, actually Bristol’s child. The Philly Daily News breaks it down:

http://www.philly.com/dailynews/features/27755734.html

This is my favorite part, it’s the “what if they aren’t lying” scenario:

In April, reportedly 36 weeks pregnant, Palin flew to Dallas to give a speech. Before the speech, she began to leak amniotic fluid. Tough Alaska moose-hunter that she is, she gave the speech anyway. She called her family doctor, who is not an OB-GYN, who allegedly told her it would be OK to fly back to Alaska. For the record, there are hospitals in Dallas.
Having given up the governor’s private plane, Palin flew commercial, not telling Alaska Airlines that she was in labor and that her water had broken. No airline personnel seemed to note her as a woman about to give birth.
Her looooong Dallas to Alaska flight had a stopover in Seattle. There are also hospitals there.
So Palin finally arrived in Anchorage, where the airport (ironically named after Alaska Sen. Ted “Bridge to Nowhere” Stevens) is six miles from possibly the best medical facility in the state, Providence Hospital. Providence is one of two hospitals in Anchorage that has a NICU unit, which could come in handy for a 40-plus woman, just off a long flight, about to give birth to a premature baby with Down syndrome.
Palin, however, drove (or was driven) approximately an hour to the much smaller Mat-Su Regional Hospital in Palmer, Alaska, which does not seem to have a NICU unit.

Hilarious!

The New York Post has excerpts from Johnston’s MySpace page:

On his MySpace page, Johnston boasts, “I’m a fuckin’ redneck” who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes.

“But I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing, shoot some shit and just fuckin’ chillin’ I guess.”

“Ya fuck with me I’ll kick [your] ass,” he added.

He also claims to be “in a relationship,” but states, “I don’t want kids.”

“The groom has got to be black if there is any fun left in the world. You could have Obama preside over a third trimester abortion. He’s wild about the shit.”

To me, a scientist is bald and has hair coming out of the sides of his head. . . . Scientists live in their own world and the rest of society puts them there.

From Ashley’s post on Seventh graders describe scientists before and after a visit to Fermilab.
