The highly anticipated Oprah Winfrey presentation of Zora Neale Hurston's "Their Eyes Were Watching God" aired on Sunday, March 6, at 9 p.m. on ABC and received mixed reviews from Blair staff and students.
In "The Jacket," Adrien Brody stumbles around, confused and dazed. "I don't know why I'm here," he says pitifully. Audience members ask themselves the same question. Brody, an Academy Award winner highly praised for his work in "The Pianist" deserves better. What is such a gifted actor doing in a poorly developed piece of fluff?

Team record: 16-11, 7-9 conference Coach: Gary Willaims (538-303) Maryland has had an extremely disappointing season. After winning the ACC Tournament last year and returning most of their starters, most fans thought that Maryland had a legitimate chance to go to the Sweet Sixteen and maybe even to the Elite Eight in the NCAA tournament.

In an upscale Bethesda, Maryland neighborhood, brilliant and burly Navy S.E.A.L. Lt. Shane Wolfe (Vin Diesel) is protecting a government secret. As he changes diapers, totes five children to Costco in a minivan and serves as a little girls' scout troop leader, Shane Wolfe is serving his country. Though accused of "babysitting" by the high school wrestling coach (hairy and hilarious Brad Garrett), Wolfe is on active military duty while wearing a tool belt packed with juice boxes and warm milk bottles. Wolfe is on a mission"to protect the Plummer children from deadly foreign agents trying to steal a military program that their murdered scientist father created and hid inside their home.
Maher participates in a team huddle during a practice.
It was during a particularly long, boring history class last year when juniors Jessi Douglas and Nick Warmington decided to produce a rap album together. The hour and a new block flew by as the two wrote their lyrics, matching them to beats and rapping them aloud.
