Stony Brook University is known throughout the country- and even the world- for its medial and science programs. A program that often goes unknown is Cinema and Cultural Studies, which focuses on film rather than lab coats.
The program, which is administered by the Department of Comparative Literary and Cultural Studies, focuses on film as a form of expression, in relation to other disciplines like literature, art and theater.
Everyone knows the iPhone is the king of the moutain when it comes to cell phones. It basically does everything. But what if you don’t have AT&T? Then what? Tell me! Maybe the Droid?
I often get into arguments with people about which is a better playoff: The NHL or the NBA. Obviously, everyone is biased with which sport they prefer, and sadly, most people don’t enjoy hockey. But after watching numerous great 1st-round series in the NHL, it is hard to argue.
Even if you hate the cd, you can't deny the awesome cover
I’ve found that over the years, the bands I listened to back in high school have just gotten worse and worse. Part of that is that I liked really crappy bands when i was 16, and are realizing that six years later. The other part is that bands I liked back then have matured over the last half-decade.
For the first time since the lockout, the NHL playoffs will not feature the New York Rangers. They failed to make the playoffs for the first time since 2004. That however, may bring more good than bad.
There is a laundry list of things wrong with the NHL, with the shootout near the top of the list.
I know I’ve written about the New York Rangers all semester long, and their elimination yesterday at the hands of the Philadelphia Flyers in a shootout yesterday afternoon has nothing to do with post. I’ve felt that the shootout is bad for the game since its inception in 2005. There is no reason for a game that focuses so much on team play and non-individual talent, to end in a skills competition.
For the first time since the lockout, it appears that the New York Rangers will be watching the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs from their homes rather than on the ice.
I was recently talking to a friend of mine, who happens to be a New York Islander fan. He said that if you like Sean Avery, you’re not a real hockey fan because he is bad for the game. He went on to say that he is the worst fighter in the NHL, and quite frankly, is a wuss. I can’t think of anything further from the truth.
This is a video from “Jimmy Kimmel Live” from after the Oscar’s on Sunday night. Each year after the show, Jimmy does a video that includes a lot of celebrities. Last year was the infamous “I’m F***ing Ben Affleck.” This year, he was the president of the “Handsome Man Club,” which included many of Hollywood’s best looking male actors.
This is a daily short news program produced daily on IGN.com, which focuses on video game news. There is a host talking in front of the camera, which is usually covered by b-roll of the video game being discussed.
In this video, Nick Kurczewski, an automotive journalist, learns how to drive a zamboni. He’s done other projects like this, traveling around the world learning how to drive unusual vehicles.
In this video, they find a man named Jonah Falcon who is need off a job. It is a joke video feature, in which the interviewer encourages Falcon to start a career in porn, due to his above-average penis size. It is filmed like a 60 Minutes piece, but obviously scripted and with a comedic touch. She eventually convinces him to use his ‘gift’ for advertising space.
Professor Raiford Guins has introduced two new courses this year to Stony Brook University’s already robust catalog. The catch here, is that this course, and it’s cousin, are tailor-made for gamers.
