The election of Mahmoud Abbas as President of the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) has given both sides of the conflict an incentive to renew peace negotiations. To gain a better sense of the concerns Palestinians have for Abbas, I interviewed two Palestinians, Mike and Alex. (With current violence on the Israel-Palestine front, printing the full names of these sources may endanger their lives.) Mike is an administrator in Bethany, West Bank, and Alex is an accountant in Beit Hanina, Jerusalem.
There's nothing particularly special about the exterior of the Red Tomato Café, located near the corner of St. Elm Street in Bethesda. However, after entering the tiny, tucked-away restaurant and spotting the topping-laden pizzas as they are pushed into the crescent-shaped brick oven, it's clear why the Red Tomato was named a "best eat" by Washingtonian magazine.
Two professionally equipped studios. A row of editing stations outfitted with top of the line programs and a full staff of producers, executives, DJ and assistants. While this may seem like a description of a professional company, this is, in fact, the make-up of Blair Network Communications (BNC), Blair's very own production organization located within the building.

George Washington Carver led an extraordinary life, ever since his childhood. Born to enslaved parents, Carver was kidnapped by Confederates but was returned to his home on a Missouri farm, allegedly in exchange for a racehorse. He was crippled by an illness that prevented him from working on the field, but Carver continued to spend his time examining crops even so. This began Carver's interest in agriculture, the field where he later sought to further his education.
For those not so sports-inclined, the Super Bowl is about two things: the halftime show and the creative advertisements. This year, thank goodness, was a great deal less controversial than the embarrassment that was Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson's halftime show last year. Former Beatle Paul McCartney was wisely chosen as this year's halftime show entertainment-- a good choice, considering his legend enables him to carry the halftime show by himself and he manages to put on a good show without resorting to blatant sexuality and lewdness.
Each day as senior Tanu Suri leans against the counter, the customers at the photography shop where she works compliment her on looks. For months senior Suzie Adjogah dealt with the unwanted gifts her boss gave her from his travels abroad. Whenever senior Emma Karey wore a short skirt to her old job, her fellow waiters' catcalls would ring in her ears throughout her shift.
This was a territorial, back and forth game with neither team really gaining much of an advantage over the other for long periods of time. Towards the middle of the game, Jisung Kim, playing for Sliced Bread, snuck in a low snapshot past goalie David Ufford. After that goal, however, Ufford settled down and proceeded to pitch a shutout for the rest of the game.
Muhammad Ali was born as Cassius Clay on Jan. 17, 1942, in Louisville, Kentucky. One of the most influential moments in his young life occurred when Ali was 12. He met policeman Joe Martin, after Ali's bike was stolen, and the young boy told the officer that he wished to beat up the person who took his bicycle. Martin suggested, however, that before Ali took any action, he should first learn how to box and defend himself. From then on, Ali began to attend Martin's boxing gym regularly. In a short period of time, he became the best in his age group; by age 18, he had won all the possible amateur titles and qualified to participate in the 1960 Olympics in Rome, from where he brought back a gold medal.
In a 50-minute speech that he delivered in May 2004, comedian and actor Bill Cosby criticized the black community for being unappreciative of the accomplishments of their great leaders and urged them to stop blaming the white race for their circumstances. In a later speech, he criticized black youth of today for their public demeanor and urged parents to take responsibility for their kids' behavior. Cosby's willingness to speak out reflects the personal role he has taken throughout his career in being an influential and memorable figure in history.
