Duncan speaks to Blazers in the auditorium after school on Wed., April 20.
Just as no contemporary author would dare to undertake a work of the length, sensitivity, and historical perspective of a "War and Peace," "Don Quixote" or "Les Miserables", so too would no modern director undertake a film with the scope or complexity of "Andrei Rubelev."
Peace between Israel and Palestine now seems closer than it has since the beginning of the Second Intifada in September of 2000, possibly closer than it has since the not-quite-good-enough 1993 Oslo Accords. However, for there to be any genuine hope of achieving peace, Israel must be willing to make some concessions to the Palestinians, something that will not happen without President Bush upping the pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to make a more concerted effort for peace.
Two guest speakers spoke to Blair students yesterday on the issue of the international HIV/AIDS epidemic. The teach-in was held by Students for Global Responsibility (SGR).
The Blair girls' varsity lacrosse team started the game against the cross-town rival Springbrook Blue Devils with a 2-0 lead; however the Blue Devils would come alive scoring seven straight goals in the first half. Blair's attempts at a comeback proved not to be enough as they lost 11-7.
If they wanted a realistic shot at keeping pace with Damascus at the top of the Maryland 4A division standings, Blair needed to defeat a mediocre Blake. The Blazers did just that, winning 5-2 thanks to a pair of clutch two-RBI base hits.
The Blazers started off on par with Wheaton today but broke away late in the first set to make an increasingly one sided match. The Blazers (5-3) were on fire in their 25-15, 25-11, 25-9 win against the Knights.

In January, a group of black parents called the African-American Parents of Magnet School Applicants (AAPMSA) began researching the application process to the Takoma Park, Eastern and Roberto Clemente Middle School Magnet programs. After meeting with various members of MCPS, AAPMSA sent a memorandum to the Board of Education on March 2 requesting that the Board suspend the Magnet application process because too few blacks were being admitted to the programs.

APRIL 21, NELSON H. KOBREN MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM-- Despite the tremendous hitting strength, solid defense, and close team chemistry that has propelled Blair's varsity boys' volleyball team to an undefeated 2005 season, the team still suffers from occasional inconstancies, especially during games against weaker opponents. Despite being much stronger than Wheaton, the Blazers played an indifferent and often sloppy game against the Knights. They finally dragged out a 25-18, 25-15 and 25-17 victory over Wheaton, boosting their season record to 8-0.
