Joining fellow film industry chum Roger Ebert, Godfather director Coppola has spoken out against 3D movies, saying that "until you can watch 3D without glasses, it's the same thing we know".
Saying he'd rather make films in 2D with larger format for "some big scenes much like Abel Gance did with Napoleon" (or Christopher Nolan did with The Dark Knight), Coppola believes that the 3D format is just another way "to make you pay more money for a ticket". [Electronic House via CrunchGear]

BAFTA Worst: Jennifer Lawrence
Cut off her head and, well, wouldn't you expect that it was Blake Lively wearing this dress? Maybe Blake Lively wouldn't have worn that choker. So 90s. But you get the idea, right? There's so much titty action happening here, and I'm not sure Jennifer Lawrence means to be the titty action kind of girl, Mystique notwithstanding. I suppose, given that she's moving through awards season for Winter's Bone, and in Winter's Bone she was hidden under heavy coats and boots, that it's understandable to want to show that she can be pretty and sexy. But she also has the rare opportunity to be able to do what so many actresses her age can't – and that is to be recognised for talent before her appearance. It's so much harder in that order, you know?
There's also some significant thinnification happening with Lawrence here. To see a comparison with what she looked like in October click here. You can see it in the arms. And she wasn't big before. Quite the opposite, actually. I suppose though, when you're surrounded by girls who are so little, and you are so young, and that f-cking town is so f-cked, it'll happen. And it's happening to her.

District of Columbia Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters Programs
If you want the convenience of online study but don't want to miss out on the social learning environment of the campus, exploring one of the many Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters programs may be your best bet. You might choose to focus your graduate education on a specific topic, such as Public Relations or History, or continue immersed in a general Liberal Studies graduate program, such as a Master of Arts in Individualized Studies. A master's in liberal arts degree may be the basis for a career in business, public policy, social services, education or a host of other fields. Are you unfamiliar with the hybrid format? Read a little further to some gain valuable insight about the potential advantages to this type of program format.
Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters Programs: Essentials
Master's degree programs in liberal arts and humanities are often designed for busy adult students who have full-time careers and who know what courses and skills could help them advance in those careers.
Although completion times may vary by institution, Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters Programs typically take at least two years to complete and may include a capstone or similar project focusing on an area of particular interest to each student.
What is a Liberal Arts Education?
Liberal Arts, also referred to as Liberal Studies, are known as multi-disciplinary programs.
Programs often build critical thinking and communication skills, teach you how to analyze, ask questions and integrate concepts from other academic fields. Many Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters degree Programs allow you to customize your education with your own needs, interests and career goals. If you conceptualize Liberal Arts and Humanities as an umbrella term, it would include:
Studies in the Humanities (e.g. English, art, literature, linguistics, philosophy, religious studies, ethics, modern foreign languages, music, theater, speech, classical languages, liberal arts and sciences)
Studies in the Social sciences (e.g. Art history, history, psychology, law, sociology, politics, gender studies, anthropology, economics, geography, business informatics)
Studies in the Natural sciences (e.g. astronomy, biology, chemistry, physics, botany, archaeology, zoology, geology, Earth sciences)
Studies in the Formal sciences (e.g. mathematics, logic, statistics)
Some market research analyst jobs require candidates with a master's degree. Several graduate schools offer programs in marketing research, but many analysts complete degrees in other fields, such as statistics and marketing, and/or earn a master's degree in business administration (MBA).[i]
What is a Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters Program?
For some students, attending class on campus every day is too hard – they live too far geographically, or their work life means they need to make their own schedule. Distance-learning would be an alternative their chosen program is not available 100% online. A Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters Program is a combination of online and on-campus coursework components:
- Online means your courses are delivered via web-based educational technology, either through live streaming webinars or prerecorded lectures.
- On Campus means you may have a low residency component – weekends, intensives, or other scheduled visits to campus.
Now, not all Hybrid programs are going to be the same, but for many students, this format offers the best of both worlds. You get to potentially pace yourself when you study online, make your own schedule, and use the online library resources.
You also get the perks of a graduate school campus. Access to libraries, laboratories, and other services to begin with. More than that though, you are part of an interactive and social learning atmosphere. Whereas online study diminishes the ability to build interpersonal relationships, a hybrid program has some real-time learning built into the structure.
How to Choose a Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Program
First of all, if you have a specific career in mind, it is recommended to review the academic path that is considered preparation for it, whether it means continued education and a doctoral degree, licensing or other professional certification.
That being said, GradSchools.com makes it easy for you to land on a Masters of Liberal Arts and Humanities that aligns with your interests.
First, choose your program:
- Hybrid Masters in Area, Ethnic & Cultural Studies
- Hybrid Masters in Communications & Public Relations
- Hybrid Masters in English
- Hybrid Masters in History
- Hybrid Masters in Humanities
- Hybrid Masters in Languages
- Hybrid Masters in Liberal Arts & Sciences
- Hybrid Masters in Literature & Writing
- Hybrid Masters in Women's Studies
Some of the listings you might come across might include: Hybrid master of Arts –Literature and Writing, Hybrid Cross-Disciplinary Studies, MA, Hybrid Masters in Media Management or Master of Arts, Leadership, Public Policy and Social Issues.
Next, refine your search by location. Find Liberal Arts Colleges with Graduate programs by state, city, or even country.
While reviewing graduate schools, be certain to check for accreditation from a nationally recognized body such as a regional accrediting board.
Take the Next Step
Many Liberal Arts programs include classes that focus on discussions and the exchange of ideas. They also may involve a fair amount of research, study and coursework. Choosing a hybrid program format provides both flexibility and face-to face interaction with classmates and professors, so you learn the technical and soft skills needed for many workplace settings, from business to creative writing. Ready to take that next step? Explore Hybrid Liberal Arts and Humanities Masters Programs today!

A four-game winning streak has become a four-game losing streak in Arizona. And the man who started the last two losses and threw a decisive interception in the overtime defeat preceding the last two losses will continue to be the quarterback.
That's what coach Ken Whisenhunt said a day after the Cardinals mustered only three points at home against the 49ers.
Whisenhunt addressed Skelton's status not in conjunction with the potential return of Kevin Kolb from a rib injury, but in connection with the possibility that sixth-round rookie Ryan Lindley will play.
"I don't know where the Lindley [push] is coming from," Whisenhunt said.
Though we're aware of no coordinated "push," it's not surprising that folks would be wondering whether Lindley will get a chance. After all, Whisenhunt ultimately went with a couple of rookie in 2010, after Kurt Warner retired, Matt Leinart was jettisoned, and Derek Anderson proved that he's the answer only if the question was "Who'll be the first guy benched this year?"
That season, Max Hall started three games and Skelton started four. So why not Lindley now?
The alternative would be to try to upgrade the position via trade. But no quarterbacks are believed to be available. Unless the Eagles decide not only to bench but also to part ways with Michael Vick.

Bridgeport schools approve Harding, Bassick move to CSC
BRIDGEPORT -- Bridgeport citywide athletic director Neil Kavey believes that a new day is in store for Bassick and Harding high school athletics.
In a groundbreaking vote on Monday, both Bridgeport schools jumped the final hurdle in their move from the incredibly competitive FCIAC, where they have been since 1993, to the Constitution State Conference: Board of Education approval.
The Bridgeport BOE voted 6-3 in favor of a move that's expected to offer the two schools a significantly better opportunity to compete in the CSC. The move will go into effect for the 2015-16 school year.
"I'm just delighted with the board's vote," Kavey said. "It's a new day for Bridgeport sports. Hopefully, it increases our participation."
Several factors were cited in the move, including both schools' poor record in the FCIAC and the decline in athletic participation among students.
"It couldn't have been a smarter, more common-sensical outcome than this," Kavey said.
Last month, CSC principals approved the move in a 10-4 vote at one of the league's schools, Prince Tech in Hartford. Jim Day, the conference's athletic director, commended the move, especially because of Bassick and Harding's success in boys basketball. The two schools have combined to win four of the last nine FCIAC titles in the sport.
"For us, it was the total package," Day said last month. "But when you look at tradition, the tradition does lie in basketball."
The move to the CSC -- a 22-team league made up primarily of vocational-technical schools, including Bullard-Havens in Bridgeport, Platt Tech in Milford and O'Brien Tech in Ansonia -- is expected to benefit many sports at Bassick and Harding. Both Bridgeport schools have routinely been at the bottom of FCIAC standings.
Kavey, during his presentation on Monday, noted that the schools' baseball, softball and boys volleyball teams combined for an 11-145 record this spring. All of those wins were posted against fellow Bridgeport schools.
"I've never seen a situation this dire," Kavey said.
Several other coaches spoke in favor of the move on Monday, including Harding girls volleyball coach Jessica Racine, who insinuated that the consistent losing is emotionally taxing on the team.
"I'm so accustomed to losing, it is extremely disheartening," said Racine, whose team finished 2-16 this season.
Harding athletic director Chris Johnson cited the fact that participation in athletics has declined over the years as well.
"Twenty-five percent of the kids who were participating as freshman athletes are no longer participating," Johnson said.
Bassick and Harding's departure will leave the FCIAC with 17 schools. Kavey said that the CSC did not consider adding Central because the school's 2,000-student enrollment was twice the size of any other school in the conference.

Roster Finalized for Fall 2011 Semester of U.S. Soccer Residency Program
- New Two-Year Cycle Under Cabrera Begins with 32 Players Born in 1996 and Age-Eligible for 2013 CONCACAF U-17 Championship and 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup
- Players Enter Residency Program with U-15 BNT and Development Academy Experience
CHICAGO (Sept. 19, 2011) – The roster for the fall semester of U.S. Soccer's Under-17 Men's National Team Residency Program has been finalized with 32 players training in Bradenton, Fla., under head coach Wilmer Cabrera.
The group of players, all born in 1996, is at the beginning of a two-year cycle that will culminate with the 2013 CONCACAF U-17 Championship with the goal of qualifying for the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates. The U.S. is the only nation to have qualified for all 14 previous editions of the FIFA U-17 World Cup and is coming off a Round of 16 appearance in the 2011 event in Mexico.
The new group brings a range of experience with the U.S. U-15 Boys' National Team and the U.S. Soccer Development Academy. Of the 32 players joining the Residency Program, 25 were part of the most recent U-15 BNT camp in July at The Home Depot Center, and 10 traveled with the team to Zagreb, Croatia, in May. DeAndre Robinson, Corey Baird, Wesley Wade and Tyler Turner all scored for the United States in a 4-1 win against Croatia on May 10.
There are 24 players representing Development Academy clubs, including Vernon Bailey, who was one of the youngest players at 2011 Finals Week, where he helped the Dallas Texans to a seventh place finish in the U-15/16 age group before joining FC Dallas this year. There are an astounding seven players on the roster representing the New York Red Bulls Academy and two each from Academy clubs Chivas USA, Concorde Fire, New England Revolution and San Jose Earthquakes.
NC Alliance and Westside Metros are the only other clubs with two representatives on Cabrera's roster.
The U.S. players live on campus at the IMG Academies in Bradenton, Fla., and train in the morning under the guidance of Cabrera and assistant coaches Paul Grafer and Erik Imler. In the afternoon, the players attend classes at St. Stephens Episcopal School.
While in the full-time residency program, the U.S. team not only trains daily under Cabrera, but also has access to the IMG Academies facilities. The team regularly uses the state-of-the-art strength-training facilities, as well as brand new dormitories and meal rooms.
Beginning in 1999, the Residency Program has given players an opportunity to grow and move up the ladder in the world of soccer and become professionals in Major League Soccer, some of the biggest clubs in Europe and even make an impact on the full U.S. Men's National Team. The program in Bradenton provides players with an environment where they can prosper as individual players and come together as a team ahead of regional and world competition.
Since its inception, more than 300 players have been through the full-time Residency Program, and more than 100 of those players have moved on to Major League Soccer, or the professional leagues in Europe. Twenty-four players have also registered at least one cap with the full MNT: Freddy Adu, Gale Agbossoumonde, Juan Agudelo, Jozy Altidore, DaMarcus Beasley, Kyle Beckerman, Michael Bradley, Bobby Convey, Landon Donovan, Eddie Gaven, Omar Gonzalez, Eddie Johnson, Eric Lichaj, Justin Mapp, Chad Marshall, Dax McCarty, Oguchi Onyewu, Heath Pearce, Santino Quaranta, Robbie Rogers, Brek Shea, Jonathan Spector, Danny Szetela and Anthony Wallace.

OTTAWA The federal budget points to the renewal of Toronto's main railway station as one of the marquee projects that could be financed under the Building Canada infrastructure fund.
"The crucial commuter hub for the Greater Toronto Area – Toronto's landmark Union Station, will at last be revitalized," Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said in his budget speech.
But the plan does nothing to increase the size of that two-year old fund or change the way the money will be awarded. Municipalities will still have to pay for a third of the cost of anything they build – and Mayor David Miller has made it clear that Toronto does not have the cash.
Mr. Miller and other mayors of Canada's large cities said in the weeks leading up to the budget that they want infrastructure money to be doled out in the same way as the municipal share of the federal gas tax. That means they want to receive it with no strings attached and, specifically, with no requirement of matching funds.
The money from the $33-billion Building Canada fund, said Mr. Miller, was not leaving Ottawa because there was too much red tape and because cash-strapped cities were required to be financial partners in any undertaking.
In the budget, the federal Conservatives have tried to make it easier for Toronto and other cities to tap into the infrastructure cash by providing them with up to $2-billion over two years in low-cost loans that can be used to cover their share of the costs. Those loans, to be distributed through the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, can also be directed toward locally funded housing, sewers, water lines, and neighbourhood regeneration projects.
In addition, the federal government has offered to reduce what it calls "duplication and inefficiencies" by streamlining environmental assessments.
But Mr. Miller's requests for unfettered infrastructure cash have fallen on deaf ears.
The Building Canada fund is just one way that the budget promises to pay for municipal infrastructure. The federal plan also allots $2-billion in each of the next two years to pay for projects that can be started in the 2009 or 2010 construction season. But that money will be distributed across the entire country. And it must be matched dollar for dollar.
As will $500-million over the next two years that the federal government has set aside to upgrade and build new community recreation facilities such as hockey arenas, soccer fields, tennis and basketball courts and swimming pools.
But no matching funds will be required to obtain a portion of a small $30-million fund that has been established to support infrastructure-related costs for local and community cultural and heritage institutions. The budget specifies that the Toronto Public Library revitalization project, and Toronto's Famous PEOPLE Players are projects that could claim part of that pot.
The federal government also says it will devote $57- million over two years to improve the passenger rail service in the Toronto-Montreal-Ottawa corridor.
The money, according to the budget, will increase the speed and frequencies of trains, cutting the travel time between Toronto and the other two cities by up to 30 minutes.

Presented with a gorgeous palette of rich colours and a distinctive hand-painted art style, Grand Knights History takes place in the land of Listia, a medieval continent plagued by conflict as the struggle for land and power sees three competing nations in stalemate. For years, the lands of Union, Avalon and Logres have battled one another for supremacy, with the resulting bloodshed reaching epic proportions. With no nation able to gain an advantage the war rages on unabated.
While these three nations vie for continental domination, one captain must choose a nation with which to align himself, then recruit teams of able-bodied soldiers, train them into battle-ready knights and send them to the ever-changing persistent online war campaign. It is up to players to choose an allegiance with one of the three factions, then progress through offline questing and intense 30-hour online skirmishes, all making use of deep, strategic RPG combat and expansive customization. Race, sex, appearance, job class, sub-class and weapon type are all freely alterable for every team member, so no two knights are ever the same; and online functionality allows players to test their knights against others from all corners of the globe without even requiring a constant internet connection.
"Muramasa: The Demon Blade was a huge success story and a pleasure for us to work on," said Martin Defries, managing director, Rising Star Games. "Vanillaware represents everything good about Japanese games development and I am delighted that Rising Star Games is once again associated with such an esteemed team. We are extremely excited to combine our expertise with such talent on another release in Europe."
Grand Knights History will be published in PAL territories by Rising Star Games during Q1 2012 as both a UMD disc and download through the PlayStation® Store. XSEED Games will be publishing the title in North America.
