OxyContin: a prescription for addiction
By Katherine Duncan | Feb. 17, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Joe, a junior, sits silently amongst a boisterous group of friends along Blair Boulevard during 5B lunch on Dec. 22. After shooting paranoid glances up and down the hall, he is confident that the coast is clear and opens his hand, revealing a 10-mg OxyContin prescription pill. His back turned against the passing crowds in the hallway, Joe works quickly, crushing the pill with his driver's license and pushing the powder into a thin line on the cover of his student planner. In a matter of seconds, he snorts the drug through a pen cap and up his nose, brushes any residue onto the floor and leans back into the wall.

Without a "Hitch"
By Nick Falgout | Feb. 17, 2005, midnight | In Print »
It's official: Will Smith can do anything. Quick addendum: Will Smith can do anything,assuming "anything” refers to playing cocky characters in highly entertaining films. Smith has always been good for a snarky line here, a goofy grin there. He doesn't disappoint in his romantic comedy debut, the light and witty "Hitch."

Phillis Wheatley

Phillis Wheatley was the first noteworthy black female poet of the U.S. In the fight for black freedom, abolitionists often cited her works in order to refute the claim of black intellectual inferiority. Thought to be born near present-day Senegal in about 1753, Wheatley was kidnapped and enslaved in 1761. She was sold in Boston to the Wheatley family, who treated her as kindly as their own two daughters.

Halle Berry
By Fidan Karimova | Feb. 17, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Halle Berry, who was named after the department store Halle Brothers, was born in Cleveland, Ohio, on Aug. 14, 1968. Her father left her family when Berry was just four years old, so she and her sister, Heidi, were raised by their mother, Judith, in a one-parent household. Later, the family moved into a suburban area dominated by Caucasians. In the new neighborhood, children started teasing Berry and her sister because of their skin color. Determined to overcome the racial issue, Berry became more involved in school as a cheerleader, Prom Queen and member of the National Honors Society.

Blair swimming drops to Division II
By Kristina Yang | Feb. 16, 2005, midnight | In Print »
FEB. 12, MONTGOMERY AQUATIC CENTER-- For the last few seasons, the Blair swim team has teetered on the edge between Division I and Division II, its place in the former secured mostly by the strength of its boys' team. After narrowly escaping demotion to Division II at the end of last season after the boys finished fifth and the girls placed sixth at Divisionals (Watkins Mill, with its sixth-place boys and fifth-place girls, went down instead), the Blazers had hoped to avoid demotion once again this year because of an especially strong boys lineup.
