If you talk to my family and friends, they'll tell you I'm the super athlete - the one who has always been the ultra-competitive and sport-loving tomboy. I was the kid who spent more time outside than inside.
Anthony Ridge, a senior biomedical engineering major, expressed his outrage on Monday after his research adviser, Leonard Calderon, gave him an ultimatum: either Ridge actually start going to the laboratory and do more than make baking soda volcanoes or he is fired. Ridge was offended by his adviser's insinuations, stating they were completely false and he did as much work as anyone else in the lab, although he was never actually there when other students were.
UB is in the process of taking down its former nuclear reactor facility on South Campus. The dismantling process, which is called decommissioning, began in early December and is expected to end in 2014, at a total cost of $20 million. UB left the nuclear business in 1994 but didn't receive funding from the state to disassemble the former Buffalo Materials Research Center until recently, according to David Vasbinder, associate director of environment, health and safety. Decommissioning is the process of removing contaminated materials from a nuclear power plant.

It had all the makings of the infamous Matt Stainbrook game from last year. The men's basketball team finally took the slimmest of leads off an incredible run, and after what was a questionable call to many fans in the stands, an opposing player had a chance to take the lead at the line, with the faithful Alumni Arena crowd screaming at the top of its lungs. But unlike that game from last year, in which the former Western Michigan forward was unable to hit the clinching free throws, the confident guard nailed both shot and preserved the victory. After an impressive 24-2 run to take a one-point lead with under a minute left in the contest, the Bulls (5-11, 0-2 Mid American Conference) weren't able to finish the job, as Miami's (6-8, 1-1 MAC) Allen Roberts sunk two critical free throws to give the RedHawks a 58-57 victory at Alumni Arena Saturday night. Unlike last year, the junior guard relished the opportunity to put the final nail in the coffin for Buffalo. "I'm a make the free throws," Roberts said confidently when asked what was going through his mind as he went to the charity stripe. The game wasn't this close throughout.

After a long 13-day hiatus, the men's basketball team was dealt a significant blow prior to its return to action when starting junior point guard Jarod Oldham went down with a wrist injury. An undermanned Buffalo (4-8) team's first trip to the Apple State was an unpleasant one, as a cold second half led to the team falling late to Washington State (8-4), 65-54, in the 2012 Cougar Hardwood Classic at the Key Arena in Seattle, Wash. In place of Oldham, who suffered a wrist injury during practice, freshman guard Jarryn Skeete slid in the point guard position and was aggressive from the tip, making the first shot of the game - a three-pointer - to give the Bulls the quick lead.
