Blair's BNC organization teaches students about professionalism
By Grace Harter | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »
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.
Romance at its best at the Red Tomato
By Caitlin Garlow | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »
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.

A chance for peace in the Middle East
By | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Op/Ed »
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.

George Washington Carver
By Varun Gulati | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »
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.
It's a touchdown for McCartney
By Grace Harter | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »
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.

An elementary school student and a middle school student in Silver Spring have contracted tuberculosis (TB). According to school systems spokesman Brian Edwards, one of the infected students attends Col. E. Brooke Lee Middle School, and the other student transferred to Kemp Mill Elementary School after briefly attending Glenallan Elementary.

Bill Cosby
By Feza Kikaya | Feb. 7, 2005, midnight | In Print »
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.
Ralph Bunche
By Alexander Gold | Feb. 7, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Nobel Peace Prize winner Ralph J. Bunche was born in Detroit, Michigan in 1904. His parents died when he was 12, and both he and his sisters moved to Los Angeles, California with their grandmother. Bunche showed his intelligence early on in life when he won prizes for both English and History in primary school and when he was named valedictorian of his high school class. He then attended UCLA from where he graduated Summa Cum Laude and was the valedictorian of his class. In 1928, he received his Masters degree and spent the next six years teaching at Harvard University and working on his PhD.
Floor Hockey Results & Schedules Week Five
By Pratik Bhandari | Feb. 7, 2005, midnight | In Print »
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.
