Bechdel Test for Women in Movies

I recently read about the Bechdel Test for Women in Movies.

It is designed to measure an active presence of women in films.  The film must meet 3 criteria:

(1) two or more female characters;
(2) who talk to each other;
(3) about something other than a man.

The majority of top grossing films do not pass this test.

Survey Circles

The Army wants me to complete a post-move survey.  It has been impossible.  They link they sent in an email is broken or generates an error.  I signed into some DoD site to try and get to the survey from there.  After many clicks that led me in circles, I ended up at a site that had a link to complete the survey.  After navigating through several layers of CAPTCHA confirmations I landed on another "Contact your Webmaster" error page.

I guess they are not that desperate to have service members review their move experience.

Lots of apps

I have been downloading lots of iPhone apps recently. Many in relation to the subjects I am learning about in school. The new folders capability in iOS4 makes a big difference.
